Product Description

Hawk HB289F.610 HPS front brake pads are engineered to improve street braking performance on select Porsche Boxster and Cayman models from 1997 through 2008. Featuring Hawk's High Performance Street (HPS) compound, these pads offer a higher coefficient of friction than typical stock replacements, resulting in stronger stopping power, improved pedal feel, and reduced fade during spirited driving. The semi-metallic friction material delivers reliable performance across a wide temperature range, making HB289F.610 well-suited for daily driving and performance street use.

These front pads are designed for direct OEM replacement fitment, meaning installation is straightforward with no modifications required. Optimized for use with iron or metal rotors, HB289F.610 pads help reduce rotor wear and brake dust compared with many standard pads, while still offering confident braking performance. They are not compatible with carbon ceramic rotors. Whether replacing worn pads or upgrading from stock, these HPS pads provide a balanced blend of performance, durability, and everyday usability.
