Unhappy Axxis Ultimates Squealing! Help!

Ok guys I decided to replace my front pads with axxis ultimates since they were almost close to being done. I kept my stock rotors since they were still good too. But right after leaving the shop I kept hearing a squeal whenever I was braking between 0 and 25 mph. It's the most annoying thing. So I waited about 2 weeks to see if it would go away. It was still there so I took it back. They guy noted that I had 'heat lines' on my rotors and that I probably bought cheap pads since there was so much brake dust (compared to my rear stock pads). So what should I do? My car sounds like a piece of sh** whenever I'm stopping-and I do a lot of it-I'm in the city. Thanks in advance!

Axxis Ultimates squeal. Either use another type of pad, or add on anti-squeal coating on the back of the pads.

yeah I had them too and they squealed... very annoying. I changed them recently. My new pads don't squeal at all. Axxis was a disappointment.

I pu Axxis Deluxe Plus on my last car and not a bit of squeal. You really need to be generous with the anti-squeal compound. The OEM pads squealed like heck. Did you use anti-squeal? Did you get it in the right places??

I haven't put on any anti-squeal yet. You'd think that axxis would have fixed this by now...

Any of your more aggressive pads will squeal. Like said early, either suck it up or pick another pad

Axxis Ultimates are more aggressive than the Deluxe Plus, that's why they don't squeal on yours. But he needs anti-squeal for sure, and even that might not get rid of all of it.
