Hawk Performance Brake Deal
Today I decided to change out my front brakes. I called around, I know shame on me, but I called Autozone, and Pepboys. At Pepboys they had Hawk Performance Ferro-Carbon front brake pads on special as they are no longer going to carry them, marked down from $94 to $28. I don't know if this deal will be available anywhere else. I live in the Salt Lake City, Utah market. They are now on my car. I drive a 2002 I35, but I imagine they would fit the Maxima's of the same year. I hope this was a good deal, and thought I would pass it along just in case.

I don't know about OEM, as I'm not sure what brand of brakes were on the I35, as I've only had it since July 31st. The brakes did a very nice job today, and I noticed they seem to be grabbing better than the old ones. I also broke them in per the instructions on the box. I'm hoping they last me a long time.

You're talking about the HP Plus pads. So expect faster than normal wear and more dust as they are designed for autocross applications. They retail for like $85, so it's a steal price. Should have bought a couple sets!

I called my local pep boys and asked for the hawk brake pads... and it turned out to be the Hawk HPS Street brake pads part # HB268F.665 which are only the front pads since they were $28 I got 2 sets 
since they didn't have any in stock, they will ship them from other store in the area I'll be picking them earlier this week... what a steal...
I suggest you guys call your local pep boys and order them if they're still in stock... good luck
A HUGE THANKS TO blbrizzi1 for the post

I just got the last 2 for the 6th gen upgrade from the warehouse. $38/set, much better than the $85 I just paid when i did my 6th gen upgrade...
Best pads i've ever had, great bite, no noise, very low dust, good wear...what more is there?

You rock! I didn't even finish reading the thread - just threw on a hat and some shoes and ran up to Pep Boys!
The guy didn't mention the Hawks as an option, only OEM or ceramic. When I asked about the Hawk's he said they were discontinued - didn't mention anything about ordering them or anything.
I had to actually ask if they were available and then he said they could order them. They were $28, so I ordered several pair. He then said he had over 20 pair at the local warehouse and asked if I wanted more - guess he thought I wanted to put them on ebay or something. Hmmmmmm, maybe I should go back!

I'd Paypal anyone who can get me a set for my 02 the cash plus some extra for the trouble. Zip Code 08053. I already have Hawks, love them , but know they wear faster with slotted rotors so I will eventually need a set.

Same with the Pep Boys in NJ. They switched to Wagner and won't order any more of the Hawks from the warehouse.
