Review on 🦅 Hawk Performance HPS 5.0 HB453B.585 Disc Brake Pad by Benny Suazo

Bought these for my 2014 Mustang GT Premium Brembo. OEM replacement pads are ridiculously expensive and I think I got a full set of these (front and rear) for a price I would pay for OEM front pads alone. These pads aren't terrible, but they're not great either. I went through the entire embedding process and for a while they would stop at nothing when cold but cling too aggressively when hot, to the point where it was difficult for passengers to smoothly engage move. If I hadn't put it in gear I could have pushed it down the driveway in the morning with the electronic brake on (this car uses rear electronic brake pads). Luckily it seemed to clear up after a thousand miles or so, although I'm sure I got used to it, at least partially. I haven't used them on the track so can't comment on that, but in my experience the original pads were simply the best in every way. I'm not unhappy with that, but I'll probably look for something different in my next set.
