Hawk Performance Ceramic Front Brake Pads

2008–2014 Scion xB2, Scion xD

HB627Z.690-1

Overview:

The Hawk Performance Ceramic Front Brake Pads are engineered specifically for the 2008 to 2014 Scion xB2 and Scion xD models, delivering reliable and consistent stopping power. Designed for drivers seeking a premium upgrade over standard brake pads, these ceramic pads offer a blend of performance, durability, and cleanliness. Ideal for daily driving and spirited street use, they provide enhanced braking confidence while minimizing dust and noise.

Hawk’s Performance Ceramic compound is formulated to reduce brake noise, vibration, and harshness (NVH), ensuring a quieter and more comfortable driving experience. These pads also promote longer rotor life and extended pad durability, making them a smart choice for import domestic automobiles, luxury SUVs, sports trucks, and vans.

Key Features:

Hawk Performance Ceramic Brake Pads combine advanced materials and engineering to deliver superior braking performance with minimal drawbacks. Key features include:

• Increased stopping power for improved safety and control
• Extended rotor life due to a rotor-friendly ceramic compound
• Longer pad life compared to conventional brake pads
• Ultra-low dust output to keep wheels cleaner
• Extremely quiet operation with reduced brake noise
• Stable and linear friction profile for consistent brake feel
• Engineered to reduce brake NVH (Noise, Vibration, and Harshness)
• Optimized for ABS brake systems to enhance effectiveness
• Limited lifetime warranty against manufacturing defects

Construction & Design:

These brake pads utilize Hawk’s proprietary Performance Ceramic compound, which blends ceramic materials with advanced friction modifiers to achieve a balance of performance and longevity. The ceramic formula is designed to be gentle on rotors, reducing wear and extending component life. Each pad is precision-manufactured to meet or exceed OEM specifications, ensuring a perfect fit and reliable operation.

Hawk Performance also burnishes the pads at the factory as a final step, which helps to optimize initial performance. However, proper bedding-in with the vehicle’s rotors is essential to form a transfer film that maximizes braking efficiency and pad life.

Performance & Sound

Performance Ceramic pads deliver a smooth and predictable braking experience with a linear friction curve that enhances ABS system response. The ultra-low dust formulation minimizes wheel contamination, while the engineered compound significantly reduces brake squeal and other unwanted noises. Drivers will appreciate the quiet, clean, and fast stopping power these pads provide under everyday driving conditions.

Installation & Fitment:

These front brake pads are designed as direct replacements for the 2008–2014 Scion xB2 and Scion xD models, requiring no modifications for installation. They fit precisely to OEM calipers and rotors, making the upgrade straightforward for professional mechanics and knowledgeable enthusiasts alike. Proper bedding-in of the pads after installation is recommended to achieve optimal performance and longevity.

What's Included:

• Set of front ceramic brake pads (driver and passenger side)
• Manufacturer’s limited lifetime warranty documentation

Ideal For:

These Hawk Performance Ceramic Front Brake Pads are ideal for Scion xB2 and xD owners who want a high-quality brake upgrade that balances performance, noise reduction, and cleanliness.
