Hawk Performance HPS Front Brake Pads

2013–2016 Scion FR-S, 2017–2020 Toyota 86, 2013–2020 Subaru BRZ

HB711F.661

Overview:

The Hawk Performance HPS Front Brake Pads are engineered to deliver superior stopping power for your Scion FR-S, Toyota 86, or Subaru BRZ. Designed specifically for street-driven vehicles, these high-performance pads enhance your braking system’s effectiveness without compromising daily drivability. Whether you’re navigating city streets or spirited backroad drives, the HPS pads provide consistent, reliable braking performance that improves safety and control.

Built with a unique Ferro-Carbon compound, these pads offer a significant upgrade over standard OEM replacements, delivering 20-40% more stopping power and increased resistance to brake fade. This makes them an excellent choice for enthusiasts seeking enhanced braking confidence without the noise, dust, or rotor wear commonly associated with aggressive brake pads.

Key Features:

Hawk Performance’s HPS brake pads incorporate advanced friction technology developed from aerospace and motorsports applications. Key features include:

• Increased stopping power for improved safety and control
• High coefficient of friction, effective both hot and cold
• Gentle on rotors to extend rotor life and reduce maintenance costs
• Extended pad life for long-lasting performance
• Low brake dust generation to keep wheels cleaner
• Virtually noise-free operation for comfortable daily driving
• Ferro-Carbon compound designed for street performance
• Limited lifetime warranty against defects in workmanship and materials

Construction & Design:

The HPS pads utilize a proprietary Ferro-Carbon friction formula that balances aggressive stopping power with rotor friendliness. This compound is the result of extensive research and development in severe-duty friction technology, adapted from aerospace and motorsports industries. The pads are precision manufactured to meet strict quality standards, ensuring consistent performance and durability under a variety of driving conditions.

Each set undergoes a factory burnishing process to optimize initial performance, but proper bedding-in with your vehicle’s rotors is essential to achieve the best braking results. This bedding process creates a transfer film between the pad and rotor surface, maximizing friction and pad life.

Performance & Sound

Hawk HPS pads provide a noticeable improvement in braking response and stopping distance compared to stock pads. Their high friction coefficient ensures strong braking force from the first application, whether the brakes are cold or have reached operating temperature. The compound’s design minimizes brake fade during repeated stops, maintaining consistent pedal feel and performance.

Additionally, these pads are engineered to operate quietly, eliminating the squeal and noise often associated with performance brake pads. The low dust formulation also helps maintain wheel appearance, reducing cleaning frequency.

Installation & Fitment:

These front brake pads are a direct fit replacement for the following vehicles: 2013–2016 Scion FR-S, 2017–2020 Toyota 86, and 2013–2020 Subaru BRZ. Installation requires no modifications and can be completed using standard brake service procedures. It is recommended to replace pads in axle sets and to properly bed-in the new pads with the rotors to ensure optimal performance and longevity.

What's Included:

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

Ideal For:

Hawk HPS Front Brake Pads are ideal for street enthusiasts and daily drivers who want enhanced braking performance without sacrificing comfort or rotor life. They suit owners of the Scion FR-S, Toyota 86, and Subaru BRZ looking for a reliable upgrade that improves stopping power, reduces brake fade, and minimizes noise and dust. Perfect for spirited driving, weekend canyon runs, and everyday commuting alike.
