Hawk Performance HB987W.575 DTC-30 Race Rear Brake Pads for 2023-2024 Toyota GR Corolla 1.6L
The Hawk Performance HB987W.575 DTC-30 Race Rear Brake Pads are engineered for the 2023-2024 Toyota GR Corolla 1.6L Turbo across all trims. The HB987W.575 uses Hawk's DTC-30 all-purpose motorsports compound, the compound code "W," delivering uniquely controllable torque with smooth, consistent feel and bite that is ideal for rear axle applications on the GR Corolla platform. With a 0.575 inch pad thickness, the HB987W.575 is precisely matched to the rear caliper of the GR Corolla and sold as a complete set of four pads. This is a rear set. For a balanced split-friction race setup, pair the HB987W.575 at the rear with the HB986G.580 DTC-60 front pads to optimize brake bias on the GR Corolla for track day and competition use.

Note: DTC-30 is a race compound not recommended for regular street driving. These pads require proper warm-up on track before reaching optimal operating temperature. Cold braking performance will be reduced compared to street compounds. Brake dust and noise are normal characteristics of race compounds. These pads are not compatible with carbon ceramic rotors.
About Hawk DTC-30
The DTC-30 is Hawk Performance's all-purpose motorsports compound, designed to deliver smooth, controllable torque that gives drivers confidence in managing brake bias on demanding tracks. At the rear of the GR Corolla, the DTC-30 compound in the HB987W.575 works in harmony with the DTC-60 front pad to create a progressive, front-biased braking system that resists rear lockup and keeps the car balanced under threshold braking. The DTC-30 operating range mirrors the DTC-60, making it the ideal rear partner across a full race session without needing to swap pads.
Frequently Asked Questions
Is the HB987W.575 a DTC-60 or DTC-30 pad?
The HB987W.575 is a DTC-30 compound pad. The compound code in the part number is "W," which corresponds to DTC-30 in Hawk's compound chart. Despite the product being grouped in the DTC-60 race pad category on some retailer listings, the actual compound is DTC-30, which Hawk recommends for rear axle use.
What is the difference between DTC-30 and DTC-60 for the GR Corolla?
DTC-60 delivers higher torque with more initial bite and is suited for the front axle where more braking force is needed. DTC-30 delivers a more progressive, controllable torque profile better suited to the rear axle. Running DTC-60 front and DTC-30 rear (HB986G.580 and HB987W.575) creates a balanced split-friction setup for the GR Corolla.
Does the HB987W.575 fit all GR Corolla trim levels?
Yes. The HB987W.575 fits the 2023-2024 GR Corolla Core, Circuit Edition, Morizo Edition, and Premium trims, all of which share the same rear caliper specification.
Can I use the HB987W.575 for daily street driving?
DTC-30 is a race compound that requires heat to reach optimal operating temperature. Cold performance is reduced compared to street pads. For street or light track use, Hawk offers the HPS 5.0 or HP Plus compounds for the GR Corolla.
Are these pads compatible with carbon ceramic rotors?
No. All Hawk Performance compounds are designed to work with iron and metal rotors only. They are not compatible with carbon ceramic rotors.
How many pads are in the HB987W.575 set?
The HB987W.575 includes 4 pads, which is a complete rear axle set for the GR Corolla.
What is the warranty on the HB987W.575?
Hawk Performance covers the HB987W.575 with a limited lifetime warranty against defects in materials and workmanship. Brake pads are wear items and are not warranted against wear from normal use.
What is the operating temperature range for the DTC-30 compound?
The DTC-30 compound operates between 400 and 1600 degrees F, matching the range of the DTC-60 front pad so both axles stay within their effective range across a full race session.
