Hawk 97-12 Corvette/01-04 Z06/05-09 Z51 DTC-30 Race Rear Brake Pads

The DTC-30 compound in these Hawk Performance rear brake pads is formulated for serious track use, offering a wide operating temperature range that starts working effectively at higher temperatures than typical street pads. If you're pushing your 1997-2013 Chevrolet Corvette or 2004-2009 Cadillac XLR on the track, you need a pad that can handle the heat without losing its stopping ability.

These pads are known for their excellent release characteristics, meaning you can modulate braking pressure with precision. You'll feel a smooth, controllable bite when you apply the pedal, and the torque generated is consistent, giving you confidence during hard braking zones. While designed for the track, they offer a notable improvement in stopping power and fade resistance over stock pads, with less dust than many other race compounds.

This specific part number, HB248W.650, is for the rear position. Remember that race compounds often require specific break-in procedures to perform optimally and may produce more noise than street pads. Always refer to Hawk's official documentation for the recommended bed-in process to get the most out of these performance pads.
