Product Description

The Hawk HB136G.690 DTC-60 front brake pads offer race-grade performance for BMW 3-Series and Z3 vehicles from 1992 to 2006. Engineered with Hawk's DTC-60 compound, these pads deliver high torque with a controlled initial bite, providing exceptional release and modulation on lightweight front axles. They are widely used in race environments and recommended when paired with DTC-70 rear pads for split friction setups :contentReference[oaicite:7]{index=7}.

Ideal for front-only fitment in E36, E46, and Z3 models, these pads are OEM-compatible and designed for iron/metal rotors. Operating optimally between 700-1100 °F and up to 1600 °F, they resist fade under extreme deceleration while minimizing rotor wear. Perfect for serious track-day enthusiasts seeking reliable, high-performance braking without the initial aggression of DTC-70.
