Hawk HPS - not super noisy if you bed them properly. I have 135k on my car and on 2nd set of Hawk pads.

Hawk 5.0 will work great for what your using the car for. Hawk does have noisy pads but that's only with the DTC 30, 60, 70 etc. and those are used for high performance racing not day to day driving. The HPS will not squeak and have very low brake fade but the 5.0 are a higher grade then OEM and also won't squeak. Let me know if you have any questions at all.

I am not a fan of half way, half axxed on anything.
OEM Camaro pads are the best daily driver pad, ready for the occasional spirited burst or casual light track excursion. Switch to Track Pads for serious Track Use. If you are going to drive your street caar on the track, flush that OEM brake fluid and move to the gold standard for brake fluid, Castrol SRF. Do it right. |
