    QwikGT, yours squealing are not the fault of the pads nor rotors. Countless customers have that setup without issue. Most likely there isn't enough anti-squeal compound or your anti-rattle clips are worn or rubbing. I've never seen brakes I couldn't stop from squealing.

    Posi-quiet pads are made by Centric which is a great brand. They feature a nylon/teflon shim on the back of the pad to eliminate any noise from the caliper rubbing on the back of pads during braking. It's important to occasionally replace your anti-rattle clips as they can wear out and allow the pads to rattle causing squeal. I have those pads and my brakes have not made a sound the last two years since I installed them.

    Sorry, about to fly to Florida.

    And are you sure one of the clips isn't rubbing?

    i like my Power slots and Wagner semi-metallic pads. I only have them on the rear though, I cant say much for the front yet since im still trying to find a machine shop to drill and tap my F-body caliper brackets. Best price i got so far was $250.00, ~yeah right!~

    By rubbing I mean rubbing on the rotor. This is due to an installation error, new clips or not.
