Product Information

Hawk Performance brake pads for the 2011-2014 Ford Mustang: GT, GT500, V6, and Boss 302 (2012-2013 only). Sold to add stopping power over a stock pad. [VERIFY: the title lists this as a DTC-30 Race compound pad, but the source copy describes Hawk's High Performance Street (HPS) compound. The two don't match, and this listing can't confirm which pad it actually is.]

Why Upgrade Your Brake Pads

  • The compound offers a higher coefficient of friction than a stock pad, per Hawk, for more bite the moment you're on the brakes.
  • Hawk puts the stopping power gain at 20 to 40 percent over most standard replacement pads.
  • Better resistance to fade is the real payoff, per Hawk: pedal feel stays firm and predictable instead of going soft on repeated hard stops.
  • It also runs cleaner, per Hawk, with less dust building up on your wheels between washes.

Fitment Notes

Fits the 2011-2014 Ford Mustang: GT, GT500, and V6, plus the Boss 302 for 2012-2013 only. No exclusions are listed in our fitment data for this coverage.

Install and Honest Talk

This pad is sold as a stopping-power upgrade, not a cosmetic one. You feel it through the pedal, you don't see it on the car. Whether that feel comes from a track-oriented race pad or a street-oriented pad is exactly the confusion flagged above, and it is worth settling before you order: the two categories are built for different jobs.

Hawk's source copy does not cover what comes off the car, what stays on, or whether new hardware is part of the install. What else you need: [VERIFY: supporting parts, hardware in the box, tune requirement.]

No Robots. Just Car People.

Buying parts for your Mustang or F-150 should not feel like homework. Too many stores bury you in a giant catalog, slap the same distributor description on every product, and leave you guessing whether it even fits.


We do it the other way. We carry the brands you already trust, we tell you what a part actually does, and we give you the truth about the tradeoffs before you spend a dollar. Drone on that exhaust. Ride quality on those springs. Whether you need a tune. The stuff the big catalogs leave out.
