These Hawk Street 5.0 rear brake pads are specifically designed for Subaru STi models from 2018 to 2021. At Hawk Performance, we've been on a mission to push the boundaries, getting closer than ever to maxing out the ABS Rev Limiter. The High Performance Street 5.0 pads offer your vehicle outstanding stopping power and a great pedal feel without affecting the ABS system. The HPS 5.0 uses a Ferro - Carbon compound. This special compound combines aerospace safety and quality with motorsports braking tech, bringing you shorter stopping distances, better performance during heavy braking, and features that are very street - car friendly. With aggressive torque, long rotor and pad wear life, smooth and predictable control, and high deceleration rates, these brake pads are a top choice. They also have consistent brake release characteristics for a smooth braking experience. Remember, all Hawk Performance compounds don't work with carbon ceramic rotors; they're made for Iron/Metal rotors. They operate well between 100 - 750 F, with an optimal temperature range of 100 - 550 F.
Using these Hawk Street 5.0 rear brake pads is straightforward. Just replace your old brake pads with these new ones following your vehicle's standard brake pad replacement process. When it comes to usage, keep in mind that these pads are designed for 2018 - 2021 Subaru STI models only. They won't work with carbon ceramic rotors, so make sure your vehicle has Iron/Metal rotors. Also, try to keep the operating temperature within the optimal range of 100 - 550 F as much as possible for the best performance. For maintenance, regularly check the wear of the brake pads and rotors. If you notice any unusual noise or a decrease in braking performance, it's time to have them inspected. This will help ensure your safety and the longevity of the brake pads.
