These are Hawk Pads..
HPS (High Performance Street) – Performance Street Compound
When it comes to performance braking, there is no competition. This unique Ferro-Carbon compound combines the safety and quality of Aerospace design partnered with the braking technology of motorsports. Much improved braking over OE and standard replacement brake pads.
HP Plus – Autocross & Track Compound
The HP Plus Ferro-Carbon material can take the heat at the track and get you home safely without having to change your brake pads. This compound was designed for autocross, Solo II, and Track Day applications.
Warning! Due to the dramatic friction levels produced by this product to achieve race level braking; rotor wear, noise, dust and pad life may be affected.
As to which one you'll want. 90% of the people will want HPS due to the more rotor friendly design. But if your really heavy on brakes,like Dave, then HP+ may be more appropriate. HP+ are really aggresive and take heat well
