Yup I hated the hawk pads also. So I **** canned'em. They made to much dust an squeaked alot with the bear drilled and sloted rotors on my old tahoe. I switched to the Raybestos ceramics on my old tahoe and my dads 01 silvy and no dust or problems. I bought another set for my current project sierra but have not installed them yet.
