Brake Noise I just replaced my front rotors to stock on my 98 camaro and the pads were still in decent shape. I put some of that no squick pasty stuff on the outside of my pads and when i put them back in it didnt make any noise for a while but now it squeks when i just drive down the road and when i tap the brakes it stop but as soon as i let off the breaks again it squeeks agian and i checked the wear indicators and they arent even close to the rotors. any ideas?

Bad wheel bearing/hub. They sound just like squeaky brakes when they are about to go out on you.
You can confirm by taking the tire, brake caliper, and rotor off. Then turn the hub by hand. If it sounds or feels like a meat grinder - you need new ones.
