The Hawk HB548.590 comes in the following compounds:
HPS
HPS Brake Pads are the worldwide aftermarket standard for increasing stopping power on your street car. The unique Ferro-Carbon compound offers a higher coefficient of friction over stock pads, increasing stopping power by 20-40% and providing a greater resistance to brake fade. Best yet, the HPS pads are gentle on rotors, wear great, and are very low dust with minimal noise.
HP+
The HP Plus brake pad is the perfect compromise for drivers looking for an aggressive autocross or track-day pad that is still highly usable on the street. The HP Plus compound uses a unique Ferro-Carbon friction material that was developed and manufactured with high-performance autocross and track-day driving in mind. With its high friction coefficient and resistance to fade, this pad is the perfect upgrade for the enthusiast driver.
