Hawk HPS disc brake pads for 08 xB's
I like some of you am interested in improving the stopping on my 08 xB. I spent hours trying to find performance pads for the front and rear from one of the big performance brake pad companies. The big problem is our car is too new to find these items listed. Anyway I came across an ad by Custom Car Central in the Phoenix area for the rear brake pads by Hawk so I emailed them and asked about front pads. Within a few hours I received an email from Dmitri about the front pads.
"I am not 100% sure but I believe HB310F.689 could fit your car. They are from 96-00 RAV4 and 97-01 Camry according to Hawk. They don't have any listings for 06-07 RAV4. But according to my cross references it should fit 06-07 RAV4 and 08 xB. If you want to try it out, I'd be willing to refund you for the part as long as it is in resellable condition and freight to you, if it doesn't fit. But you would have to pay for shipping back to me. Let me know if you are interested."
I then asked if it would be ok to post his reply here and he said. "Looks like Scion used brakes from Toyota Celica 96-97 ST - both fronts and rears are the same as for xB. You can post my response but I would have to have somebody try it on before I send a bunch out. If you are going to stop by the shop let me know so I can make sure there is somebody there. I am not there on regular basis. My partner is in charge of the shop so he is there pretty often including weekends. He is working on our project Scion tC right now."
Here are the links to the front and rear pads.

Hawk makes some of the best after market performance brake pads. Their HPS "High Performance Street" series should be just the ticket for our street cars and light racing. I live about two hours from Phoenix so the next time I am there I will check them out and see about buying the pads for the front and rear of my car. It may be a while since I don't go to Phoenix a lot. If someone else is interested and tries them out before me let us know if they fit right and how they work.
