Hawk HPS Performance Street Brake Pads (0.615″ Thickness)
Upgrade the braking performance of your classic Volvo with Hawk HPS Performance Street Brake Pads. Developed using aerospace and motorsports severe-duty friction technology, the HPS compound delivers a significant improvement in stopping power while maintaining excellent street manners and low dust output.
The HPS formula provides a higher coefficient of friction than stock pads, offering 20-40% more stopping power and improved resistance to brake fade. This results in better pedal feel, more consistent performance, and reduced brake dust compared to standard replacement pads. With an operating temperature range of 100°–700°F and a smooth, quiet braking feel, these pads are an excellent choice for spirited street driving on classic Volvos.
