been discussed often, have you tried searching...perhaps in the appropriate section (parts, mods, and accessories)..btw..moved your thread to that section.....

using the advanced search feature under the search criteria hawk+pads and limiting the search field to the parts, mods, and accessories section....I found 3 pages worth of great info...

give it try, you'd be surprised what's been discussed here before, and how often....

btw: I have hawk hps pads on my e90 m3...no squeaking, no dust, good stopping power/bite....squeaking/noise IMO is more of an application/installation issue rather than product/band issue

I sell brembo rotors as well but have you checked out the r1concept rotors? I've sold a lot on this forum and people are pleased.

Check the vendor for sale section and you'll see my brake packages.

No not necessarily. All depends on how you drive.

Honestly bro, the lack of brake dust alone makes this buy worthwhile. I bought these from Michael a year ago and have been thrilled.
