hawks hps pads

are the Hawk Performance HPS any good?
i used to get ebc truck / van pads.. they were ok but very soft.
btw it's not for my car..
it's for my dad's minivan..
i need to get some new pads for his car.. so i'm looking to get some better pads but not spend too much money.

Watch out for the Ferodo, The pad will jack up your rims bad. The pads are dusty as hell ( I know that if good) but when water mixes with the dust and the wheel heats up, it is like powder coating the dust onto your rim. I screwed up two rims with them. The only way to clean them is to sand that crap off. I could not steam clean it off. So watch out for those kind of pads. Unless your tracking and don't care, but its still looks bad.

I had them too (Paperchasin's were mine once)...

I just installed them on a Legacy with a BBK (another one, not mine)...







BUT, in case you are interested, I happen to have a set of Legacy GT 12.x" rotors/2-piston calipers with Bobcats sitting in my garage for sale at this time. This is not my personal set since I like to keep my stock stuff.
