DESCRIPTION:

Upgrade the rear braking performance of your 2020-2026+ C8 Corvette Base/Stingray with Hawk Performance HB925B.597 HPS 5.0 Rear Brake Pads. Hawk’s HPS 5.0 compound uses a Ferro-Carbon friction formulation engineered to provide aggressive brake torque, improved pedal feel, shorter stopping distances, and smooth, predictable control while retaining street-friendly characteristics. HPS 5.0 provides increased brake torque and temperature capability compared with Hawk’s standard HPS compound. The compound operates from 100°F to 750°F, with an optimal temperature range of 100°F to 550°F, making HB925B.597 an excellent choice for high-performance street driving and limited light track use.
