I have the Hawk HPS and they work very good....I don't know why the other guy said 'no' to them earlier. They grab great and the wear is excellent since I've put them on....barely any noise...only at slower speeds when lightly applying pressure to brake.

Hope this helps.

Search. You are not the first evo owner to ask about replacing pads. There are tons of threads just like this one that you should read.

I have the bendix ceramics, the ones that are sold by the local advance. I dont track my car so they work perfect for me. Have a free replacement when they wear out and there cheap, 40 bucks tops. I work at advance and dont buy any others becuase they pretty much all suck.

Go with Hawk HPS if you don't mind the noise at low speed braking. It gets annoying if it gets too hot.
