Part #: HB507B.711

Overview

The Hawk Performance HPS Front Brake Pads are engineered to deliver enhanced stopping power for street-legal vehicles, specifically designed to fit Dodge models including the 2005–2023 Challenger, Charger, Magnum, and 300 equipped with 2.7L, 3.5L, or 3.6L engines. These high-performance street pads provide a significant upgrade over factory brake pads, offering drivers improved braking confidence and control in everyday driving conditions.

Ideal for enthusiasts seeking a reliable brake pad that balances aggressive performance with street-friendly characteristics, the HPS compound increases the coefficient of friction, resulting in 20 to 40 percent more stopping power. This translates to shorter stopping distances and enhanced safety without sacrificing comfort or drivability.

Key Features

Hawk Performance HPS pads incorporate advanced materials and design to optimize braking performance and durability. Key features include:

• High Performance Street (HPS) friction compound for superior stopping power
• 20–40% increase in braking force compared to standard OEM pads
• Enhanced resistance to brake fade for consistent pedal feel under repeated braking
• Reduced brake dust generation to keep wheels cleaner
• Optimized for street use with excellent modulation and low noise
• Direct fit for front brake calipers on specified Dodge models
• Durable construction for extended pad life in daily driving conditions

Construction & Design

The HPS pads feature a proprietary friction material engineered to provide a higher coefficient of friction while maintaining thermal stability. This compound is formulated to resist fade during aggressive braking and repeated stops, ensuring consistent performance. The backing plates are precision-engineered to fit the front calipers of the specified Dodge vehicles, providing secure mounting and minimizing vibration or noise.

Additionally, the pads are designed to generate less brake dust than many aftermarket options, helping to maintain wheel appearance and reduce maintenance. The combination of materials and design results in a brake pad that performs reliably in a variety of street driving scenarios, from daily commuting to spirited driving.

Performance & Sound

Hawk HPS pads deliver a firm and responsive brake pedal feel, enhancing driver confidence and control. Their fade-resistant compound ensures consistent braking performance even during extended use or in demanding conditions such as hilly terrain or stop-and-go traffic. The pads operate quietly with minimal noise, making them well-suited for street use without the harshness often associated with high-performance brake pads.

Installation & Fitment

These front brake pads are designed as direct replacements for the factory pads on 2005–2023 Dodge Challenger, Charger, Magnum, and 300 models with 2.7L, 3.5L, or 3.6L engines. Installation requires no modifications and can be completed using standard brake service procedures.
