Are the HAWK pads good for daily driving? Do they eat into the rotors?

There is a 3 month wait time on the Project Mu pads

I had Stillen pads on my Supra when I had the stock calipers on there and I liked them alot. Low dust and they lasted a pretty good while.

i have hawk hps and they are great pads. they don't eat up your rotors and has very little dust. you can't go wrong with these. i would not recommend the race version because you have to heat these up to work.

ive got the HAWK pads and love em.. when ppl drive my car thats usually trhe first thing they notice ... when they heat up they are much more agressive in stopping power... but u dont even need to hae them heated up... they work great at normal operating temps!.. and im using stock supra tt rotors

I decided to go with the Hawk HPS

anybody know where i can get TRD JZA80 pads? I'm leaning more towards OEM since I hardly ever drive the GS hard but wanted to know how much more it is.

Also, do any of our sponsors sell Project Mu pads? The B-Force series seem attractive.

I thought about getting those but my friend with a RX7 said it's always EBC Green > Hawk. I used to have EBC Green on my OEM calipers but did not like them that much though...

do you like the Hawks?

I would NOT get EBC Greens, I had those on my Supra and they were garbage. Tons of brake dust etc.....If you research all the pads out there the stock Supra TT pads are very hard to beat. Unfortunately Supraforums search is not working but I looked into this within the last couple months and the majority of people there swore by the stock pads.

i had ebc green on my solara and didnt like them for the same reasons Daimian said tried thehawk on my solara n loved them n even convinced other ppl to get em n they love Hawk

yeah, I've been lurking around but I do hear that a lot... Some reviews even said they are better than aftermarket. But for street use like my car, it's probably such a marginal gain it wouldn't matter.

My issue with EBC Greens were fading and really soft pedal feel. But now that I think about it, they were dusty too...

so I guess it's Hawk vs OEM...

HAWK or OEM is def your best bet
