        Hawk HT-10's are good, but PFC-01's are a bit better. Either are available from Bimmerworld.

          Who do you run at Pocono with? I'm about 2 hours away, and I'm there a few times a year with EMRA.

          I'm ordering some HT-10's from Bimmerworld this week. Their prices seem good.

                Call Sam at Stranoparts.com. He can get ANYTHING! They have an M3 in the stable still I think even though he's known for national championships in pony cars. He has LOTS of experience with lots of different cars.......web site sucks you have to call. great prices tell him lonnie sent you.

                    I got mine through KO, who ordered them through turner - I think it was a bit cheaper that way. at first I didn't like them but now that they're broken in they're pretty nice :)

                      I've bought a lot of pads, rotors, and lines from them, great prices, excellent service. Highly recommended.

                        The Blues are good but if you don't have ducting or if the track is hard on brakes HT10's would be better. A lot of people don't like Blues because of the dust. Personally I've never had a problem with the dust other than the one time I drove the car on the street with them. The problem comes from people not using them in their appropriate temp range. Too cold and they'll dust and eat the rotors. Run'em in the right temp range and they should be fine. That being said, most people still shy away. For the cost, you'll not get a better pad than the HT10.

                        For a stock brake system I match them up with Porterfield R4's in the rear. Some like to run the HT10's in the rear as well but you'll never keep them hot enough and they'll be grabby. Makes trail braking tough. I like matching them up with Blues in the rear the best but for E30 4 lug applications the cost is pretty high. If you're racing and it's the last bit you can get then fine, but for DE's or just track days the R4's are the better choice...and they will last longer as well.



                        In stock, as are the R4's (though those are not on my site yet). Cheers.

                              Blues will kill the discs when cold, while HT10 are more forgiving.

                              Check here for pad selection.
                              Brake harder. Go faster. No shit.
