🦅 Hawk Performance HB557F.545 HPS Performance Ceramic Brake Pad: Enhanced Stopping Power and Durability Review

Love these along with the Quiet Slot rotors on my 2011 Subaru WRX. The stop is shorter than the stick. Quiet and not dusty.

Good braking performance and quiet operation. 3000 km driven, everything ok. I don't know why some people have noise/squeak issues - maybe they just don't know how to make brakes?

I read the reviews and put them on a 2016 WRX. The performance and price were amazing. The car showed itself perfectly on the track, the brakes did not disappear. Outside reacts with little dust or noise. Definitely recommend to anyone who is on the fence!

Be careful when ordering. Revane said it would fit my 2010 STI SE. When I was able to get my brake work done I found that they will NOT fit my car and can no longer be returned as I had 30 days left. I believe different models have different sizes so check your current pads. before order.

These pads offer great feel and braking performance. They squeak a bit when wet, but only occasionally and probably because I didn't use the anti-squeak slime that Hawk provided. Installation Note: I have a 16 WRX, Revane says they will not fit. But according to the part number they fit. I trusted the part number and they matched perfectly.

These pads have better stopping power and grip than the original pads. Don't disappear when descending from mountain passes. They seem to last about 30,000 miles on my car and 50,000 on my wife's car. I drive more aggressively. Good place for autocross. I would take the next step if you are planning trackdays. They do not damage the rotors. I've been using them on all my cars for ten years and they're always my first choice for changing brake pads.

I installed these on my 2010 Subaru WRX just over a month ago. I drive about 1.5 hours a day and had time to test them out in Seattle traffic. Compared to standard brake pads, Hawk HPS offer improved stopping distance and pedal feel. It was immediately noticeable, they really hold on when called. A little delicate at first but now after breaking them a bit it's much better. They produce very little brake dust, which is a big plus for anyone who likes a shiny interior. If you're looking for an…

Like some of you, DBA rotors are very expensive these days. I will say these pads do a pretty good job overall but even with proper fit and maintenance they reduce brake fade, they basically ruined my DBA rotors. DBA makes great rotors but their customer service is pretty bad. They play email with you and blame everything but their own rotors. Yes, they did deform my rotors, which is pretty unfortunate, but they offered ample stopping power. They are very bad on wet roads. Almost always. Which…
