Jun 22 2011 from the august 2011 issue of car and driver.
Ebc vs hawk ceramic.
Performance brake pads compared.
I had the ebc green and they were ok but brake dust was horrible.
No dust great stopping power.
Have you guys ever had any experiences with any of them.
The money you save now could compound into a crazy repair bill if your front bumper ends up kissing the rear of the sedan that stopped short to avoid squishing a squirrel.
I actually bought a set of satisfied pro ceramic from speedlogix 6 months ago to save about 60 and have been quite impressed with them.
40k on the pads and they are about half gone.
Oh and is ceramic what its hyped up to be for an suv.
My main reason going ceramic was to reduce brake dust which they did dramtically.
Next thing i want are slotted and dimpled rotors.
I used the duralast gold from autozone.
But a high price for new brake pads and brake rotors.
Ebc makes brake pads rotors and fluid for a variety of vehicles.
I ll admit i was nervous at first.
Ebc and hawk performance are two of the biggest names in automotive brake parts.
Between those two i d go with the hawk hps.
Hawk brakes when it s time to replace or upgrade the individual components of your brakes it can be difficult to know exactly which brand to go with.
I switched to a ceramic pad will never go back.
Specializing in high performance braking these two companies are often the primary choices of automotive enthusiasts.
The pads im trying decide between are either the ebc greenstuff 7000 series hawk lts and the hawk ceramics for suvs.
Hawk hps hawk hp plus ebc yellowstuff.
Cars trucks suv s motorcycles atv s bicycles and carts.
