Project µ NS street pads vs Hawk HPS pads

Does anyone know the benefits and drawbacks to both pads?? i have Hawk HP+ pads for front but am buying rears and want to get the better set since they both cost about the same.

so which is better, the µ NS pads or the HPS pads??

thanks for the information

Why not get the same pads all around?

I switched from the Project Mu street pads to the HPS. I personnaly feel the Project Mu's had much better brake feel and were stronger on the street, but they are twice as much money and only lasted 1 year of daily driving. The HPS have been on for at least two years and have over half the pad left. Both are excellent pads, but for me the 100% price difference does not justify the increase in feel at the expense of life and brake dust. However, If you don't put alot of miles on the car it may be worth it for you.

hm, their the same price for the FC, 70$ shipped for the Project µ and about 66$ shipped for the HPS.

i'll probably end up getting the µ's, they were going to be my choice if i didnt get any feedback on them anyways. thanks for the reply
