Product Details

You're getting a set of Hawk Performance Blue 9012 Race rear brake pads, designed specifically for your 1997-2013 Chevrolet Corvette, and also fitting the 2004-2009 Cadillac XLR. These aren't your average daily driver pads; they're built for when you need more stopping power and consistency, especially during spirited driving or track events.

The Blue 9012 compound Hawk uses here is known for its ability to handle higher temperatures without fading, meaning your brakes will feel more responsive and strong even under heavy use. Compared to stock pads, you can expect a significant increase in stopping force, giving you more confidence when you need to slow down quickly. They also tend to generate less brake dust than many other performance pads, which helps keep your wheels looking cleaner.

These pads are a solid option if you're looking to upgrade your Corvette's braking performance for track days or demanding street driving. Remember to consult Hawk's installation guide for specific break-in procedures to get the most out of these race-oriented pads.
