Best pads I've ever owned were OEM honda pads from the dealership, combine those with dealership rotors and you'll be happy.

I've seen much worse. I want to say the rotors were about $60 each and same for the pad set, but don't quote me on that.

Ask most people that have been working on cars for a long time and they'll tell you that if you want the best quality brake parts then the place to go is straight to the dealership.

The RR Forum would have more information on Hawks. I personally use Cobalt Friction GT-Sports, not the route to go if you want low dust / quiet operations but damn do I stop.

I used hawks for 3 years and I got rid of the car and pads where still meaty.

Never made a noise and they braked really good. I paid about 65$ for the set and OEM ones where about 60$. I ran the cheap rotors from the auto parts store. Never had an issue, put alot of mileage on the car.
