Engineered to reduce brake NVH (Noise, Vibration and Harshness), Performance Ceramic is a premium disc brake pad that delivers excellent performance mile after mile. Providing a linear friction profile that allows your vehicle's ABS system to operate most effectively, our unique compound has the advantage of never sacrificing power to achieve traditional ceramic pad attributes. With Hawk's PC, you can expect reduced brake pad wear, longer rotor life, and our quietest ride ever.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eFeatures:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cul\u003e\n\t\u003cli\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eSTREET USE ONLY\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\t\u003cli\u003eExtremely quiet\u003c\/li\u003e\n\t\u003cli\u003eUltra-low dust\u003c\/li\u003e\n\t\u003cli\u003eImproved stopping power\u003c\/li\u003e\n\t\u003cli\u003eGentle on rotors for extended pad life\u003c\/li\u003e\n\t\u003cli\u003eStable friction output\u003c\/li\u003e\n\t\u003cli\u003eAll Hawk Performance compounds are not compatible with carbon ceramic rotors.
