Using these Hawk HT - 14 front racing brake pads is straightforward. First, make sure your vehicle is a Subaru STI from 2004 - 2017. When installing, follow the standard brake pad replacement procedure in your vehicle's manual. It's important to note that these pads work best when they reach their operating temperature, so don't expect full performance right away during cold starts. As for maintenance, regularly check the thickness of the brake pads. If they're getting too thin, it's time for a replacement. Also, keep an eye on the rotors for any signs of excessive wear. If you notice strange noises or a decrease in braking performance, have your brakes inspected by a professional.
