hp+ are loud..you can try a proper brake in procedure and that will probably help some...when i ran them the level of noise changed after every hard use.

bottom line: if you want 0 noise..buy a different pad

 

I just installed hp+ on my car.. fronts only for now... did the brake in... and was good... or so i thought lol.

I did the bedding in, let them cool off... then went for a drive and didnt make any noise... for the first few stops and then they started squeeling like crazy.. and i dont mean little noise.. i dont mind some squeaking, but they scream so loud EVERYONE and i mean EVERYONE looks at you lol

I just cleaned them up again, used different high performance high heat lube on them and gonna try again.. if they continue screaming im swapping to HPS's.

I do love their grip thou, and they make 0 noise under heavier braking. So when driving at higher speeds on the highway and i go to brake, they work amazing.

^^^ mine never stopped. People were always cringing as I stopped next to them. I just took them off and replaced with Carbotech, they seem to be somewhat quieter and do well on the track.

 

i had hope... now not so much lol
ah well, hope for the best.. if they dont get quieter at all, gonna replace with the hps pads.

so far, when i brake, and the brakes scream, literally everyone looks at my car. I should ride around with decals all over my car "Yes, track pads are loud" lol (jk)

 

The problem is they aren't really track pads either. I avoid both HP+ and HPS at all costs. HPS just feel awful to me. They're quiet, but worse than stock in every other way.

What pads you recommend? or you like for street dd use?

Just came back from bedding them in... i get in the car after, they drive nice and quiet..... for 5minutes and the noise is back... **** this pad... getting rid of this asap.. they grrip great. and 0 noise when moderate to hard braking, but just no good for street application.

I've experienced the unbearable noise caused by HP+.... solution was to get rid of them and put in OEM or HPS. The brake dust was ridiculous too... definitely not a DD pad thats for sure.

 

Had HP+...way too noisey for a street pad. Not suitable for the track, look at the MOT.

Went to Ferodo DS2500s...never looked back.

 

I've rocked these before, excellent pad as well!

Not a big fan of Endless but I had some sitting around... swapped them for a track and they are even better then OEM on the street so I just left em.

 

HP+ are really loud. That "SCREAMING" sound is common

Good alternatives are the ProjectMu B-Force or NS, Porterfeild R4 or R4-S, or a Stoptech 309 Pad

 

1+

 

R4 is pretty good...i use them for track and no noise most of the time

 

I agree. These pads are ok for the street but crazy loud and unsuitable for track use. So many good alternatives. Love the DTC70 for the track though.
