HP Plus utilizes a unique Ferro-Carbon, high-tech friction material that was developed and manufactured for sport driving in autocross, Solo II and “track day” applications. The Ferro-Carbon formulation offers lower wear rates and higher torque values than other competitive materials. Extremely high coefficient of friction makes HP Plus the perfect upgrade over stock for high performance streetcars used in autocross competition or that experience repetitive, heavy braking. Warning: Due to the dramatic friction levels produced by this product to achieve "race-level" braking, rotor wear, noise, dust and pad life may be affected. Note: Hawk Performance burnishes its HP Plus brake pads as a final step in the factory, but all brake pads have to be bedded-in with the rotors (new or used) that they will be used against. Properly bedding-in new brake pads results in a transfer film being generated at the pad and rotor interface to maximize brake performance.

I paired the Hawk pads with new Power Stop slotted/drilled coated performance rotors. The Hawk pads work well to "bite" and stop my Altima fast. But my wheels are covered with layers and layers of black brake pad dust. Also when braking to slow down from 80 MPH, there is excessive and annoying front end vibration and grumbling noise. I did not have dust or vibration issues with Power Stop brake pads. Never again. Buyer beware.

These were a definite upgrade from the ceramic brakes from O'Reillys. I had my brakes squeal and a lot of brake dust will accumulate on my rims a week after washing them. Not with these. No squealing. Very very little dust. The only reason why not 5 stars is because when I take my foot off from the brake lightly, it makes this rubbing sound (I'm sorry not a very good description). It's not a big deal though, maybe because they're brand new. Definitely worth the extra money.

This is the second set that I am putting on my 2007 G35 coupe. I got 50k miles out of my first set. I don't get any squeaking and these pads produce minimal brake dust.

I have bought these for my 2004 G35 Sedan NON Brembo. These pad are for the front brake pads Hawk Performance HB268F.665 HPS Performance ceramic brake pad. For the rear I used (Hawk Performance HB370F.559 HPS Performance Ceramic Brake Pad) The amazon cross reference does supply some misinformation as stated in other reviews. But that doesn't make these pads poorly made or make them perform poorly. I cross referenced my own parts at [...] . I feel if others researched into products more before they committed to the purchase they would have a better star rating. These fit perfectly on my 2004 G35 Sedan NON Brembo brake package. These brake pads are AMAZING! Get them for both front and back. You'll notice theres a day and night as far as stopping distance/all around brake performance. They don't make very much brake dust too. Thats just a plus . I got this for about 25%of what my local parts houses wanted. I got it in 3 days which I was very pleased. You cant beat the price.

All four of my Nissan Sentra original brake pads had anti-rattle clips on top and bottom. The first two new pads I pulled out of the package had them as well. I installed them on the right side and reinstalled the caliper and wheel. When I pulled out the last two pads there were no anti-rattle clips. I didn't want to backtrack and reinstall the old pads so I pressed on and used the supplied silicone grease on the backs of the two left-side pads to prevent rattling. I broke in the pads per the instructions. They work great. No rattles so far.

(((NOTE))): These are not Ceramic brake pads as in the product title. These are Ferro-carbon brake pads. At least the product number is correct.-Installed on 2009 Nissan Sentra-Had it installed by a local auto shop-Came exactly as shown in the picture: 4 pads (used 2 on front left/right. Back brakes are drums)-Have not seen any brake dust and they do NOT produce any noise when activatedI previously had Ceramic brake pads by Pepboys on my car for 7 months. They still had a lot life in them but I decided to change them due to poor stopping power and because it started squeaking a few months ago.These brakes are a MAJOR improvement!! I felt that my brakes were "tighter" when pressed and provided more than enough stopping power. Please note that your experience might also depend on what kind of rotors you have on your car. I also had Centric Premium Brake Rotor with E-Coating (Parts 120.42091, also bought on Amazon) installed at the same time as my brake change.Its been over a month now and they are still working like day one. I will update later in the year as I wear them in.Features of Hawk Performance HPS brake pads include:* Extremely low dust* High friction/torque, hot or cold* Gentle on the rotor* Virtually noise-free* Greatly improved braking over OE* Extended pad life

I have had an infiniti since 2006, I have had an I35 and a G35. I only have the I35 now. I have always known that I have to use nissan pads to avoid squeaking,dust and fade. I read a lot of reviews on these pads and decided I would try hawk pads based on the description stating no noise, brake dust exc. Either I recieved pads from auto zone in a hawk pads box or the reviews were biased. These brakes squeak, turn my wheels black and have terrible fade. They remind me of the first time I tried using non-nissan pads. Unfortunately I purchased both front and rear hawk pads and regret it. I wish someone would have told me the truth about these pads because not only did I waste over $120 for front and rear but I also have to buy new pads because I hate squeaking brakes and I have to wash my wheels once a week because they turn black!! I will post pictures. I usually dont post reviews but I really wish someone had taken the time to let me know these pads are terrible, the nissan pads are the same price and are 100 times better.

I have a front wheel drive vehicle with these pads on the front. they work great together with Baer Decela rotors. Great braking performance, low dust, and no noise. Way better than pro-stop ceramic pads that I used in the past.Completely satisfied with this product.
