Hey guys just looking for some honest opinions. I'll be doing my brakes soon and wanted to know if anyone had a preference over OEM pads? I've been looking at hawk hps pads as an alternative and wanted to see if anyone had any feedback. I will be taking the celi to some track events relatively soon, I figured that needed to be stated. So whats better OEM or Hawk HPS pads.....any other suggestions will definitely be taken into consideration. Thanks

if you want to upgrade, get stock 2000+ GTS brakes (the whole disc, bracket, rotor, AND pads) newer, bigger, better stopping
