Review on 🚀 Hawk Performance HB370F.559 HPS Ceramic Brake Pad for Optimal Performance by Noah Jess

I also changed the rear pads on my 15 Q50. And I'm impressed with the braking power of the pads. Before buying the pads, it was already clear to me that the pads squeak a little when they are cold and that there is a slight shaking when you first stop, as soon as you drive for the first time after a long break. But once the pads are warm (about a 5-10 minute ride) the brakes work phenomenally. You can stop at any time and it seems to have very strong traction compared to the Akebono the car originally came with. Unfortunately you have to grind on the pads, but once you do that you don't have to worry about stopping (provided you have the right tires).
