Default Ordered wrong Hawk pads!

So i accidentally ordered the Hawk HPS (high performance street) pads instead of the LTS (light truck) pads. I tow a trailer only a couple times a year and the trailers have brakes on them, will the HPS pads work for me or should i return them for the LTS.

There wont be a problem just means you may or may not need pads again sooner than usual

I got the hps on my truck. They rock. They sometimes have a slight squeal when cold but when they warm up they stop my 35s on a done. Zero brake dust too.

From what I understand there is minimal difference between the HPS and LTS lines from Hawk. I've been doing a lot of research on which brake pads to go with and I'm going with the Hawk Ceramics. I'm not sure which colour they are, as the HPS should be blue and I believe the LTS is green. I wish EBC made brake pads for our cars, I've run their RedStuff before and they are outstanding.

I had the HPS on my old Mustang and they made some noise.
