The Hawk HPS 5.0 front brake pads for 2008–2013 BMW 1-Series use a high-friction street compound to increase stopping power and reduce fade compared with many standard replacement pads. The compound improves cold and hot bite for a firmer, more consistent pedal feel, generates less brake dust, and is formulated to be quiet and kind to rotors for spirited street driving and frequent heavy braking.
