How much more stopping power can I expect with these pads?

Hawk Performance states that their HPS braking compound can provide 20 to 40 percent more stopping power compared to most standard replacement pads. This is due to a higher coefficient of friction offered by the ceramic compound.

Will these pads make a lot of noise?

No, these pads are designed to be extremely quiet. The ceramic compound helps to minimize noise during braking, contributing to a more comfortable driving experience.

Do these pads come with everything needed for installation?

This product includes the brake pads themselves. It is recommended to inspect your rotors and other brake hardware during installation and replace any worn components as needed. Refer to the manufacturer's installation instructions for details.

Product Details

Hawk Performance is well-known for making braking components that offer a step up in performance. This is especially true for their HPS braking compound, which you'll find in these Ceramic Street disc brake pads. If you're looking to improve your vehicle's stopping ability without going to a full race setup, these pads are a solid option.

These pads use a ceramic compound that provides a higher coefficient of friction than stock pads. What that means for you is a noticeable increase in stopping power, potentially 20 to 40 percent more, and better resistance to brake fade. Fade is when your brakes get hot and don't work as well, so less fade means a more consistent pedal feel, especially during harder braking. Plus, this compound is designed to generate less dust and run quieter than many other performance pads, and it also helps extend the life of your rotors.

These pads fit a variety of Volkswagen models from the late 70s through the early 90s, including popular choices like the Golf, Jetta, and Rabbit. They are a direct fit replacement for your existing pads.
