Brake Pads: Hawk or TRW?

[Theoldjaffa]

hi all,

 

need feedback for performance of Hawk and TRW brake pads for DC5 GSR.

 

for street use, no tracking. stock rotors.

 

which is better?

I havent used hawk, but TRW's are my choice for a street pad. Very good bite, very good fading char. It also has very good rotor wear rates but as a result theres a fair amount of dust.

Is TRW also known as Lucas?

[Acestar]

so which is beta???

[Elfenstar]

Kinda. I havent figured out the relationship between the two.

 

Here was the review that made me swap to them abt 2.5 yrs ago. I haven't looked back since.
