Hawk HP+ Rear Brake Pads for Miata and Protege Rear Disc Brakes - HB159N.492

Hawk HP+ HB159N.492 rear brake pads; .492-inch nominal thickness.

For listed 1994-1997 and 1999-2000 Miata trims, verify the original standard rear brake assembly. undefined

Rear axle only; 1995-1998 Mazda Protege ES 1.8L with original rear disc calipers and solid iron rotors; .492-inch nominal pad thickness. Match OE rear-pad reference BCYF-26-43Z / BCYF-26-43ZA and original retaining hardware. Excludes rear-drum configurations, later Protege/Protege5 and Mazdaspeed brakes, carbon-ceramic rotors and unverified conversions. Confirm caliper, parking-brake hardware, clips and shims before ordering.

Rear disc-brake application requires confirmation before ordering. Historical Hawk catalog lists HB159 .492 for these Escort/Tracer years, but current exact-part pages omit them and an OE reference in the historical table conflicts with the Ford disc/drum parts catalog. A year/trim match alone is not confirmed compatibility. Rear drum brakes are incompatible. Verify the actual rear caliper, pad dimensions, .492-inch thickness, solid iron rotor and parking-brake/retaining hardware; do not infer compatibility for a conversion or from ABS equipment.

Not compatible with Chevrolet Venture brakes or carbon-ceramic rotors.

HP+ Compound

High-friction street and autocross compound with strong initial bite and broader temperature capability. Increased noise and dust are possible.
