If you are looking something that performs about the same as stock but is a very low dust pad, take a look at the Hawk Ceramics. If you are looking for a high performance street pad then take a look at Hawk HPS. If you are looking for a mixed street and track use pad then Hawk HP+ is what you want. If you have any questions feel free to send me a private message.

I went with the HPS pads because they perform better than stock and they have less dust.

whats wrong with oem? its a fantastic pad for oem. can brake dang good on the street...not to hard on rotors. remember to clean the rotor of the old pad with some steel wool or somethig and properly bed the new pads.

You have a few options. The go to brake pads for the Camaro are the Hawk Ceramics and the Hawk HPS!

We also have our Stillen Metal Matrix pads available that cost 30% less than Hawk.

Our Stillen Metal Matrix pads use specific grades of predominantly semi-metallic compounds with the right amount of ceramics and other components mixed in to provide higher friction than OE pads. Their ability to operate at a higher heat range, resulting in less chance of brake fade.

PM or Call me with any questions.

Thanks

I used the HPS pads on my Gen 4. How many miles do you have on the stock pads?

HPS is a good pad for the money
