THis is the second time buying the Stoptech brand pads. I previously used Axis and they were terribly dirty. The Stoptech's lasted almost 30k miles and were relatively clean.

Two part review, Product and incredible service. 1.) In a pinch I ordered 2 axel sets of Hawk HPS pads and SS lines from another distributor to refresh my 135i pads and prepare for a track event. David called me back the next day to apologize for the delay in response and then proceeded to give me a 10 minute dissertation on the differences between the Hawk HPS and StopTech Street Performance pads. His knowledge and experience led me to return the Hawks for the StopTechs - even though they would not come from Zeckhausen. He was dead nuts on! While others at the event complained of fade in their 2nd and 3rd sessions, I actually gained more and more confidence in the StopTechs though 4 sessions. I am not worried about the dust as the stock pads are very dusty. They don't bite as hard as stock but are much more linear and easier to modulate at pace. We have 3 BMWs and two other makes in the family and all possible brake products will be ordered from Zeckhausen going forward. Thanks David!

I bought this pad based on the review from the Zeckhausen site. It works fine, but the dusting is not much better than the stock pads.

Purchased these pads on Zeck recommendation as a good combo street/med-light track pads for myE46 M3. Good cold bite, not noisy like dedicated track pads, medium dust and good price. These are not substitutes for dedicated track pads and I found them to fade a bit after 10 min at PBIR. Main complain is the wear. Down to min thickness of 3/16" after 3 track days between Homestead and PBIR. Good for beginner HPDE but not for intermediate or above.

Good street pad. Quiet, great bite, but very dusty. Haven't used them on the track, as they're a street pad, but they stop great on the street. Just so, so dusty.
