Not bad for HPS’s, just sucks they’re so old of a pad compound. I had them on my Subaru before I upgraded to their performance ceramics. They were a pretty good DD pad, and did ok at autocrosses as well.

I have the HPS on my car and they are a good pad. Good for daily driving like Cossey stated.

Get the Hawk Performance Ceramics if you’re gonna pay the normal prices. I think they’re a better pad than the HPS, as it’s newer technology. They’re pretty much like a newer, updated version of the HPS. Only they’re ceramic, so less dust.  
I’m running Carbotech XP8 pads for trackduty on the LGT, and ordering about 5-6 sets for the GTR soon if I can secure a sponsorship.

I need new pads so bad but I want a nice hard compound for the rear for drifting next season too bad Goodyear doesn’t stock them or they would be free 😉

Also loving Hawk Perf Ceramics and love em.

They spark like a fucker when they get hot, which is cool.
