Front Brake Pads, Hawk HPS 5.0 - E9X M3/1M, E9X 335i/328i, Z4 35is, E60, E63

Hawk's HPS 5.0 Street Brake Pads are highly regarded for their ability to increase the stopping power of your street car. Hawk's exclusive Ferro-Carbon formula was developed specifically for good street performance by utilizing the safety and quality of aerospace and motorsport severe-duty friction technology.

The HPS 5.0 compound is a revision of their previous HPS pad and offers a higher coefficient of friction than your stock brake pads, and while BMW stock pads actually have good stopping power, HPS can provide 20-40% more stopping power and higher resistance to brake fade than most standard replacement pads. Less fade means you'll have a highly durable brake pad with less brake dust than the heavy-dusting stock BMW pads.

HPS 5.0 rear brake pads should be combined with a similar brake pad on the front. Mixing front and rear brake compounds may result in undesired brake balance.

HPS 5.0 Brake Pad features:

• Increased stopping power over stock BMW pads
• High friction/torque hot or cold
• Gentle on rotors
• Extended pad life
• Low dust compared to BMW pads
• Virtually noise-free

Specific Fitment Notes:
E9X 328i: 2008-2013 models only. Pad spring clip must be removed from outside pads (if equipped).
E60 525i: 2004-2005 with automatic transmission only.
Due to dimensional differences in pad shapes we do not suggest these pads with Performance Friction Direct Drive rotors for any application.
