Hawks suck.PERIOD. I have no clue how they got so popular, the green stuff pads aren't worth a **** either. They're not worth the money, and they throw dust everywhere. I have the 13" front and rear upgrade and I run the Motorcraft/Raybestos pads, and i have yet to have any fade issues at all. You can probably get them cheaper from Ford than from the parts tore amazingly enough. But Raybestos has the contract for ford, so either name is the same product.

I hear mixed reviews. Some swear by Hawk, others swear at Hawk.
