After 90 min.of track use And 9000km i replace front brake pad under warranty . Today at 11500km rear was gone and dealer wont change under warranty. So what brand of aftermarket pad you recommand?

Hi Alex. Funny they replaced the fronts but not the rears. I've heard a lot of good things about Hawk pads but must admit that I do not have first hand knowledge. Hopefully someone with more experience will chime in.

Our club has a few autocross racers and they like the Hawk Pads. There are many to choose to from, some are great but with high dust and noise. Pick one that best suits your all around driving needs.

What is the white powder all over the pads, salt?

That really sucks Alexmartinez. I've used the Hawk HP Plus and HPS pads in the past. They are a good pad, but can be extremely noisy for everyday driving. I'm currently using EBC Reds and like them too, although they can be pretty dusty. I do some AutoX and lapping days and they are holding up well. I just make sure to wipe my wheels down frequently to avoid "pitting". If you are doing a lot of track days, I know that some guys are using Kobalt pads. Maybe something to consider.
