Installation Tips

Installing your new brake pads is straightforward, but a few steps can help ensure optimal performance:

  • Securely position the brake pads in the caliper for proper installation.
  • Check your brake fluid and replace it if necessary to maintain peak performance.
  • Inspect all hydraulic components for wear and tear.
  • Examine the rotor for deep grooves or scoring; resurface or replace if needed.
  • If the rotors are in good shape, remove any contamination from previous pads by sanding with 130-grit sandpaper. Clean the rotor surface with soap and water afterward to eliminate oil, grease, and brake fluid.
  • Ensure calipers are moving freely and lubricate as needed.

With the Hawk Performance DTC-80 brake pads, you can trust that your vehicle will stop on a dime, whether you're racing or just cruising around town. Upgrade your braking system and feel the difference!
