I wish I could get 200 miles before I had to clean my wheels from dust, more like 35! Hawk HP+'s will put you through the windshield when dead cold and only get better with heat. I have them at all corners, with SS lines, Baer Eradispeeds, brake cooling ducts, and ATE super blue. Pedal travels maybe 1/2", perfect setup for a 2k mile year car IMO.
I guess I'm opposite of what Carbotech's customers are wanting as I want hard braking and bite from the get go on my cars and bikes. I'll do the modulation with my foot or hand myself thanks. Oh and btw the most widely used race pads on motorcycles dust badly as well.
It sounds like you and I are on the same page as far as what we want from our brakes.
The weird thing is that I've used the Hawk HP+ pads before and was unimpressed. I had a set of EBC Greenstuff pads on my '89 Mustang GT and my spirited backroads driving hurt the rotors pretty badly, so I ordered a set of Powerslot cryo treated rotors. Powerslot recommended braking in the rotors with new pads, so I decided to try the less expensive Hawk HP+ pads. Stopping power was noticeably less than the EBC Greenstuff pads, so after a few hundred miles, I went back to the EBCs. So, I'm a little hesitant to try Hawk pads again. Out of curiosity, how much do they dust?
And, where did you get the cooling ducts?
