Ive driven Hawk HP Plus alot, I like them, but the initial bite was a little too much for me, I would rather they come in light and get stronger. Ive also driven Hawk blue, but dont like how they act cold as far as street use go, but love them otherwise. Also driven PFC (not sure what compound, but I know it wasnt the autozone one) I like them, they seemed a little better cold, but wasnt able to really get on them. what have you driven, and how do you like them? Noise and dust aside, I dont wear panties

I have heard Ceramic are the best... they don't leave metallic compounds that melt onto your rims.

I got some dust free squeak free pads for the front... But I don't know how to install them. I made my own thread, also I think I need to get the rotors turned and cleaned?? I dunno, I'm a nub But my buddy has a shop with all of the tools, but he has been truck driving recently and said I can use the shop when I want, but he is too busy atm to help

I've got bendix titaniums on all four corners right now. Although I don't have anything to compare them to right now I like the fact that there is almost no dust.
