***Official UT Chat Thread***
Hey guys. I needed new brakes rotors recently. I took my car to Joe and TurboLab and he installed Hawk HP+ brake pads and Stoptech Rotors. My brakes are now squealing louder than imaginable!!! I had a similar problem with the stock brakes and rotors, but never this bad. Any ideas? Is there any way to fix this? Its annoying, embarassing, and its killing my game! LOL!

If you don't like it, it is time to sell em and buy a softer compound street pad rather than a street/track pad.

edit: i guess i should have read the last post where UT_evo answers your questions haha.
Currently you have pads that are designed for a street/track use car that can take the abuse of a track but aren't too abusive on the rotors to use on the street, and get hot enough fast enough they can grip with just a little street driving. You've basically got a DOT R-Compound tire grade pad (in tire terms) and what you need is an all-season grade pad.
The good news: You have an Evo and have a set of barely used pads that are really great for those of us who like street/track pads. So you should be able to sell them fairly quickly.
i had them on my SRT-4 and had no noise and they worked well. but they are also like 1/3 the size of evo breaks so more room for squeaking.
Hawk Ceramics are good if you do not want dust but HPS perform better.
I think I need to find someone with a White Base Lancer Trunk to swap with my spoiler one on the Evo X. This spoiler has gotta go.
