Using these brake pads is easy. Just replace your old brake pads with these Hawk High - Performance ones following your vehicle's normal brake pad replacement process. When installing, make sure to clean the brake calipers and other related parts to ensure a proper fit. As for maintenance, regularly check the brake pads' thickness. If they get too thin, it's time to replace them. Also, try to avoid sudden and hard braking as much as possible, as this can cause premature wear. In wet conditions, dry the brakes by gently applying pressure on the pedal while driving at a low speed. This will help keep the braking performance consistent and the pads in good condition.
