well i am going with the hawks hps, putting them on this weekend i will post agian after they are on

 

well i lied i couldnt get the hawks diliverd on time so i went with the high performance ebc, they work alot better than the stock ones at getting my lifted beast to stop, so far i love them, i would recomend anybody these pads

 

What does EBC stand for ?

 

I think that is is European Brake Company, but I am not certain about that. So for I don't like the Hawk Ceramics as much as the EBC's that I had. They don't seam to anchor the truck like the EBSs did. The Hawks also seem to produce more dust. But they are a little bit quiter.

I am looking for ceramic pads for less dust. How do these look?

the hawk hp are composite? what does that mean? is it better than ceramic?

 

I have never had them, but I notice that the friction material is black. In my experiance (5 sets of F-150 front pads) Black material shows the most dust. Currently I have the Hawks and to be honest I like the EBC 6000 series much better. The EBC's stopped just as good or better, plus they made less dust in a month than the OEM or Hawks do in a couple of days.

Are the EBC ceramics? also where do you get them from?

 

I don't know if they are considered a ceramic or not, but I like them way more than the 2 different sets of cermamics that I have had. I bought mine from the TireRack, but they no longer carry them. But, if you look here I bet you can find a set.

Ok, they have the 6000 series for 62 dollars.

NOw there is a new 7000 series for $127 that claims 90% dust free as opposed to 60% on the 6000 series.

Do you think the 7000 series is worth it since my main reason for changing them is dust? or the 6000 good enough?
