Question HPS vs stock pads

Can i use Hawk HPS pads on my stock rotors?????because a friend told me the hawks are too strong for the stock rotors? I mean when i will driving like 140m/h and i push brake really hard so then my rotors will be bent????

You can use the HPS's on the stock rotors as long as they are still in good condition. Before I got my slotted girodisc rotors I ran the HPS on stock rotors with no issues.

From: somewhere testing various tires, brakes, and suspensions.
1. 140mph on the street is just stupid. 2. 140 mph on the track with HPS is just nuts (HPS is not a track pad). 3. Warped rotors tends to be from pad material transfer. Its really hard to warp a rotor and hat.

Now, I am going to close this thread. There is a great thread sticky in the Wheel/Tire forum...I should know...I wrote it
