Yeah that's my thinking. If they were very low in dust I could see the benefit, but they're not.

Considering Ferodo DS2500 as my next pad. Seems like a decent compromise between streetability and track performance.

Update on Hawk Ceramic Pads for a 2009 Base C2

Subject: Hawk Performance Performance Ceramic Brake Pad-Yellow

Hawk,

I have seen that many people on Rennlist have said that the parts noted for their car do not fit when they receive them. I want you to double check the correct part numbers. I need front and rear pads for the following car:
2009 Porsche 911 Base Model Carrera Coupe or sometimes called a C2. I do not have an "S" or composite rotors etc.
VIN-WP0AA29909SXXXXXX
Please let me know the correct part number for your Yellow Ceramic brakes for both the front and rear.

Brian

Here are links to the correct pads for your car:
Front:

Rear:
http://www.hawkpadsdirect.com/Hawk-P...b651z.624r.htm
These are a guaranteed fitment on your car.

Thanks and let me know if you need anything else or want to get them ordered.

So I installed Zimmerman rotors on all 4 corners (OEM) and Hawk Ceramic pads on my base 997.2. Here are the part numbers:

Front-HB719z.668
Rear-HB651z.724

I can confirm those part numbers for a base 997.2 work. Note that all rotors are 28mm new and not 34/28 like the S cars. Enjoy.

Hi
Why did not you install the Hawk HPS?
What is more suitable for original brake rotors?
Whose company is Porsche's original brake pads?
Is the Hawk ceramic (yellow) suitable for Rotors original brake?
Thanks

Recommendations of those on this forum that have run both HPS & Ceramics. Most prefer Ceramics.

What is more suitable for original brake rotors?

Original Porsche rotors are cross drilled Zimmerman rotors. If tracking heavily get slotted rotors and not cross drilled rotors.

Whose company is Porsche's original brake pads?

Textar

Is the Hawk ceramic (yellow) suitable for Rotors original brake?

These pads work great with the Zimmerman rotors for street and occasional tracking.

Thanks[/QUOTE]
