I don't know if Hawk makes pads and shoes for Dak's but I just put
Hawk HPS pads and shoes on the Neon since I do AutoX heavily with the car.
They definitely make a whole lot of difference!. EBC makes some
excellent produts too. I would have put EBC's on the Neon but they are
backordered until sometime in December.
