Product Description

The Hawk HB170Z.650 Ceramic Front Brake Pads deliver premium braking performance with extremely low dust and minimal noise for luxury and sports vehicles like Porsche 911, 944, 968, and Ferrari 348/F355 models equipped with OEM front disc brake calipers. Using a Performance Ceramic compound, these pads offer a smooth, linear friction profile that enhances ABS function and pedal feel while preserving rotor life and reducing brake NVH.

Engineered for street performance and everyday driving, these ceramic pads maintain consistent stopping power across a broad operating temperature range while significantly lowering dust and noise compared to many semi-metallic pads. Installation is direct into OEM calipers with included hardware and shims, making the HB170Z.650 an excellent choice for drivers seeking refined braking performance without sacrificing comfort or wheel cleanliness.
