If these pads perform the same or similar to Hawk pads is there a pricing comparison?

Thanks
My pads are from Wagner. The cost for the front is $49.00.
I took a look at Hawks now and they say that you gyus have stoping power on cold brakes. Is it true?
I do not have any emergency stopping on cold brakes on Quick Stops, however they still work on iron hot conditions.
If Hawks give you emergency stopping when cold than they are better. Next time I will try Hawks. How much are they?

Next time I amm getting Hawks. I did not know about them. They claim to have stopping power when cold. Is it true?

Thanks for calming me down when I was in the USA and fuelled low octane gas. You were right, nothing happened.

Running constantly low rating octane will/could potentially do some damage. In your case nothing to worry...
Hawks HPS are the BEST period after I spend extensive time on audizine.
They will set you back around US$90 depending if you need front or rear
Just check out MJM Autohaus from Texas ships with USPS to Canada so no hidden brokerage fees like UPS, FedEx...etc

And this is the answer I like. If something is good than there is no reason to search anymore.
