Default Thanks for all the input...I'm leaning towards these pads. NE1 try these?

not for track but extremely low dust and noise which is exactly what I'm looking for. I'll get track pads if and when the need arises.

Default Hawk Ceramics suck. Yes they're low dust, but that's the only thing they have going for them.

Ceramics are barely better than OEM pads in terms of feel, bite, etc (all the important things).

I will lose all my respect for you if you run Hawk Ceramics in a BBK.

Hawk HPS and Carbotech Bobcats are both very low dust and both are a far better choice (imo).<ul><li><a href="https://forums.audiworld.com/a4gen2/msgs/1057532.phtml">Look here for my Bobcat review.</a></li></ul>

Default Just switched order to HPS pads. The perf. ceramics were higher priced..

so I assumed that's what most were getting. Thanks for sparing me the heartache 8-)

Default Then you'll be happy to know...

...that an error in my order resulted in a fortuitous substitution. Instead of the Hawk HPS pads I'd ordered, I have Bobcats instead.

It just makes last week's wheel-fit gaffe (and the resultant delay) all the more painful.

HPS pads will work much better :-)
