Hawk HPS is a top performer for the street. They're a ferrocarbon pad. Excellent braking performance with pretty easy rotor wear. Looks like they're only available for the front wheels for the W201, but those are the wheels that count.

I can offer this testimonial for Hawk HPS pads: I was approaching Milwaukee's downtown freeway interchange last summer in heavy traffic and slipped into a lane behind a semi at about 50 mph. Just as I completed the lane change the trucker braked hard -- I saw the tires on his trailer's tandem wheels smoke when they locked up.

I hit the binders too, and got instant and dramatic response. The Hawk pads and Conti Extreme Contact DWS tires saved me from a collision that day.
