Hawk Performance Ceramic Brake Pads By K-mo on Aug 01, 2009 - Updated Oct 15, 2011

I bought a set of these for my front and rear brakes on my 2003 Dodge Ram Hemi to go with new drilled and slotted rotors I was installing. I wanted a low dust brake pad, that would prolong rotor life, and that would also keep my brakes squeek free. The Hawk Performance Ceramic Brake Pads were just what I was looking for. I had pricey 22 inch rims on my truck and I didn't want brake dust eating away at them (cheap pads release dust that will just destroy chrome rims). The Hawk pads had barely any brake dust and because it was ceramic it didn't harm my rims at all. After almost 2 years my rotors and rims still looked brand new and my pads were still far away from needing replacement. These pads last and they will make your rotors last a lot longer than stock pads. These pads may be pricey but they last a lot longer than the cheaper brake pads so in the long run you will probably save money. I highly recommend the Hawk Performance Ceramicbrake pads.
