Default Try Hawk HPS as a good alternative to stock. Much less dust, slightly better performance.
no squeek.

Default Yep. Annoying as hell. Worse when hot. But they sure can stop when you stand on them.
Not a good street pad though. I wonder how long it will take to burn through them.

My rear anti squeel shims have peeled up but the squeek isn't too bad.

Ditto-with my Ecs slotted not a squeak and the less dust ever on any pad I've used.

Default I have them on the rear, and actually don't have any sound from them
Been on for maybe 30k miles or so? They do wear down the rotors more, but dust less, stop well, and have honestly been silent (I'd go nuts if they made any noise FYI)

Default Did you put any anti-squeal compound on the backs of the pads?
Mine are pretty silent with the compound. I initially installed them w/o it and they were INCREDIBLY noisy.
