Thinking about upgrading pads with an R1 Concepts dimpled.slotted rotor. Is there a large loss in braking power going to the Hawk Ceramics? Less dust is fine but I might do some occasional parking lot Auto cross so I don't want to lose perfomance. Don't know I really need to get more dust for upgraded perfomance though. Never did it before so i really have no idea what to expect. Maybe I should just upgrade the rotors only and then decide? Or do it all at once? (rotors are being done mostly for asthetics).

I'm buying ceramic pads from AutoZone. $50 for the from and I think $45 for the rear with lifetime warranty. They aren't hawk pads but good enough for me

Maybe a dumb question, but can you put ceramics on the front and leave the stock pads on the rear?

Let me know how they work... Hawks are 133 for the fronts and 119 for the rears, so that's a considerably better price if they are in any way comparable. I'm looking for something with lower brake dust than the immense amount the stock ones generate.

Don't Like it? Suggit.

Appreciate it man- ended up getting OE pads for front/rear for a little over 200. Thinking I'll probably try the Hawks next time around, so I know who to speak to when the time comes.

Wanted to have the rotors resurfaced, but skipped it and changed the pads DIY. (like almost everything I do to my car)
