ok i got my rotoras last year and installed them with the cheap satisfied pro OEM pads that i got from tire rack.. now the rears are squeaking like crazy..

i've taken the pads off and they have a ton of life left.. there is barely any wear on it.. is there anything i can do about this? is there possibly something i did wrong in installation that might have caused this? they worked fine for about a year but now they're horrible..

can i just replace the rear pads with a different brand or material (possibly ceramic) while keeping the old pads on the front?

 

Apply Brake Squeal

Metallic pads will not squeal. Adding ceramic pads will only make you have a permanent squeal.

 

I have EBC Greenstuff pads and they hardly squeal. Maybe you can give those a try.

 

Brake squeal from the autoparts store should cost a couple dollars and be able to take care of the problem.

 

thanks for the brake squeal suggestion.. i got some and it has seemed to take care of the problem so far.. no more squeal.. regardless, i don't think i will ever get the satisfied pro pads again..
