Hawk Performance’s legendary HPS – High Performance Street compound is developed specifically for street-driven performance vehicles.

The result is a performance brake pad ideally suited to fast-road driving, modified vehicles and enthusiastic everyday use.
Available in the UK from Performance Cars Parts, the Hawk HB453F.585 is a popular front brake pad fitment for a wide range of performance cars including selected Honda Civic Type R, Mitsubishi Lancer Evolution, Subaru Impreza WRX STI, Renault Megane RS, Toyota GT86 / GR86, Ford Mustang, Volvo S60/V70 R, Hyundai Genesis Coupe, Tesla Model S/Model X and other vehicles equipped with compatible performance brake calipers.
Why Choose Hawk HPS Brake Pads?
Hawk HPS pads bridge the gap between ordinary OEM-style replacement pads and more aggressive motorsport compounds. They are designed to provide noticeably improved braking performance without sacrificing the characteristics required from a road-going brake pad.
Key Benefits
- Increased stopping power compared with many standard replacement brake pads
- Hawk states 20–40% more stopping power than stock replacement pads
- Excellent choice for spirited road and fast-road driving
- Improved resistance to brake fade
- Smooth and predictable pedal feel
- Consistent brake release characteristics
- Higher coefficient of friction than typical stock pads
- Designed to be gentle on compatible brake discs
- Excellent pad life for a performance street compound
- Lower dust output than many aggressive performance compounds
- Suitable for everyday performance vehicles
- Developed specifically for street use
- Premium Hawk Performance braking technology
Hawk HPS High Performance Street Compound
The HPS compound is one of Hawk Performance’s best-known street braking compounds. It has been engineered to provide a higher coefficient of friction than conventional OEM-style brake pads, helping the vehicle achieve stronger braking with improved pedal response.
This makes the HB453F.585 particularly suitable for performance vehicles where standard pads can begin to feel inadequate during repeated hard braking.
Whether your car is standard, tuned or used regularly for enthusiastic road driving, Hawk HPS pads provide an effective performance upgrade while retaining the smooth and controllable characteristics expected from a road brake pad.
Improved Braking & Pedal Feel
One of the major advantages of Hawk HPS pads is the combination of stronger braking performance and predictable modulation.
The compound provides progressive braking response as pedal pressure increases, giving the driver greater confidence and control during everyday driving as well as more demanding fast-road use.
Reduced brake fade also helps maintain more consistent pedal feel as brake temperatures rise.
Temperature Performance
Hawk specifies the HPS compound with the following operating characteristics:
Optimal Temperature Range:
100°F – 500°F / approximately 38°C – 260°C
Operating Temperature Range:
100°F – 700°F / approximately 38°C – 371°C
This temperature range makes HPS particularly well suited to performance road applications where greater heat capacity is required than that typically offered by ordinary replacement pads.

Important Fitment Information
Please verify brake caliper and disc specification before ordering.
HB453F.585 is used with several different vehicle applications and in many cases fitment depends on the factory brake package, Brembo calipers, model year or optional performance braking system.
Two vehicles of the same model and year may therefore use different pads.
If you are unsure whether Hawk HB453F.585 fits your vehicle, contact Performance Cars Parts with your:
- Vehicle registration
- Make and model
- Model year
- Engine
- Trim / derivative
- Brake caliper type where known
This allows the correct brake pad specification to be checked before purchase.
Designed for Iron / Metal Brake Discs
Hawk Performance specifies its HPS pads for use with conventional iron or metal brake rotors.
Important: Hawk Performance compounds are not compatible with carbon-ceramic brake discs.
Do not install HB453F.585 on a vehicle equipped with carbon-ceramic rotors unless the braking system has been converted to a compatible iron/metal disc setup.
Ideal For
The Hawk Performance HB453F.585 is an excellent choice for:
- Performance road cars
- Modified vehicles
- Fast-road builds
- Weekend performance cars
- Daily-driven performance vehicles
- Cars with upgraded power
- Enthusiastic B-road driving
- Drivers wanting stronger braking than standard pads
- Vehicles using compatible Brembo or performance calipers
For dedicated circuit use where brake temperatures regularly exceed normal road conditions, a more aggressive Hawk motorsport compound may be more appropriate.
Hawk Performance Braking Technology
Hawk Performance specialises in high-performance friction products for road, competition and specialist applications. Its HPS compound is designed to bring performance braking technology to street-driven vehicles while retaining everyday usability.
By upgrading to Hawk HPS pads, drivers can achieve increased braking confidence without moving to an uncompromising race-only friction material.
