Re: need help? What brake pads did you use? Several pads are prone to squeaking like hell. Thats why I prefer GM stock pads for our cars, they are clean and don't squeak.

Re: need help? I swapped all four rotors and brake pads on my car last Spring. I went with Baer Eradispeed rotors and Hawk Performance Brake Pads. The pads squealed like crazy for the first four or five months after I installed them, but after that they quieted down. I get an occasional short squeal, but it's not the ear-splitting squeals I was getting last Summer. Going to the dragstrip on a regular basis seemed to help quiet them down too

Re: need help? I personally don't like the stock pads. Mine squealed like a stuck pig when it was hot outside. I bought some OEM style from Bendix. They dusted qoite a bit at frst, but they don't squeal near as bad. I will get something different soon.
