Better than OEM but expect brake dust on your wheels . Not noisy at all on my 370z.

These brakes pads do not stop my car at all. Because I haven’t put them on yet. The previous set of these same pads are holding up very nicely... low dust (after break-in) and no fade.I would caution that these pads are very thick, and you may hear a “whisking” noise for a while, once installed. I’ve combined the pads with new aftermarket slotted/cross-drilled rotors, and the pads are holding up nicely. Also, they tend to be quite squeally at around 60F for some reason, so they’re not as quite as factory pads.Make sure you follow the bedding procedure, and clean off the old rotors if switching to these.

Little bit of a squeak at low speed very light application, but are very grippy and no fade. A bit of dust, nothing excessive, to be expected from performance pads.

Car: Infiniti Q50 Sport. Long story short, I replaced all the brakes and rotors. I'm sure I installed everything correctly (torqued the caliper bracket, cleaned all the brake dust from the calipers and contact points, greased all metal to metal contacts with the lube provided) However, these brakes were noisy! When I am coasting and brake the car, it does so pretty smoothly with no noise. But right before it comes to a COMPLETE stop, it groans and you feel a slight vibration as it stops. Same thing for the reverse. When I am at a complete stop and I let off the brake pedal, it makes a very loud groaning noise that I can't stand. It's very pronounced when I let go slowly. I'm pretty sure the rotors weren't the problem so I went ahead ordered a new set of pads, this time I went with Akenobo ASP Ceramic. My assumptions were correct. The noise is now gone. These was my 1st pair of Hawk pads and I am not sure if I will buy again.

Pads arrived on time and were easy to install on my 2010 Infinity G37 sport with Stillen slotted and drilled front rotors (which are excellent btw!). Upon break in these pads don't stop as well as factory pads. Worse part is the Hawk pads are loud under moderate to heavy braking. There is a vibrating noise generating from these pads which makes everyday driving no fun! I will be replacing with either factory OE or Stillen pads.

I bought these for the front of my '14 370Z, they are very nice. Much less initial bite than OEM, but a more linear feel. Where the OEM pads bite then gradually weaken, these allow better hard braking feel and consistency. It makes slower stop and go traffic more "involved" feeling as you're pressing the pedal further, but the trade offs were worth it to me. Used these pads on 3 different cars, never let down. Dusting is bareable, no more than OEM.

Amazing stopping power. Did a few very aggressive stops from 220km hr to 0 and there was little brake fade.Ver quiet with string bite.

I first purchased the hp plus pads and the dust was out of control, but the bite of the brakes was amazing! I had to switch to these. Low dust and about 90-95% or the stopping power. So if you're looking for a great pad with low dust, no noise (if greased right), and awesome stopping power...these bad boys are it!

I still experienced some brake fade at the track, but somewhat less than the OEM brakes.

Installed on my g37, easy install, no break-in, great feel. Have them on all four, the initial bite isn't as much as the OEMs but once you get some pressure on them they really bite. They throw off less dust than the OEM pads from what I can tell.
