My front brakes are really bad they just start screeching even when brakes aren't applied.
Can you guys recommend me some brakes ?

Links ? Prices thanks a lot

Which pads are best for the front that won't rape my bank account

 

crateenginedepot.com
gmpartsdirect.com

For stock pads.

I got Hawk HPS, theyre not that bad at all. I've tracked them as well. It's great for a DD no complaints here. If you're going to track, you will notice slightly less performance. Only when the brakes are really hot.

 

How much for a pair of pads ?? Any links thanks

 

I have Hawk HPS too and they work great. I didn't track them so I don't know if they are any worse with heat but there are also the HP+ pads on turbotechracing.com which hawk website says are better on the track but will wear more quickly.

Unless you have any specific complaints, I would go with stock pad replacements from either of the sites posted earlier. They're a tad pricey, but not too bad when I consider that I'm going to get over 50k on my original front pads.

 

Are you positive it's your front brakes? How many miles do you have?

 

i have 30k miles ive been told my dealer there the fronts.

i found on modernperformance
124.99 ? any one find better deal?
Hawk HPS Front Brake Pads 08-10 Cobalt SS

 

Did you actually check? I only ask because my dealer told me my fronts were almost metal on metal almost 15k miles ago. I checked them myself to find they still had a ton of material left, as evidenced by the fact I'm still driving on them.

 

Don't know what they charge for shipping bit r1concepts has them for just under 150 shipped. U have to call them though for prices as they are not listed on the site

 

stock pads are the way to go if you can put up with squeels from time to time.

 

I would check for yourself it's probably the back that's squeaking and need to be replaced. I'm at 50K and my front rotors still have plenty of beef. My rears however got juiced awhile back from uneven pad wear.

I have R1 premium rotors with HP+. They are so damn noisy!!!! I'm thinking to change them. Which pads can I put? I'm looking for the best braking but with no noise.

 

I'd go with stock front pads, Hawk rear pads, R1 Concepts rotors

 

you just made me

 

no noise? you mean squeal?
stock is best bang for the buck beside the brake dust.
hawk is subpar. this have been discussed before.
you guys wanna hear what you wanna hear and still ask
but when you dont here what you wanna hear you justify
what you wanna hear.

^this is not ment for bart.

 

i must of got the s****y run of factory brake pads i went thru alll rotors in 10k 2 more sets of rears till 36 when i got tired of taking it to the dealer for warranty stuff they looked like a ground hog took its teeth to it. pads too hard for rotors so i put r1 concept rotors on it dimmpled and slotted (didnt want the cracking like you get with drilled thru) and ebc brake pads red stuff grab like a raped ape and brake dust i cleaned them once over the summer because they got a lil dirty from brake dust

EBC Brakes DP31763C - EBC Redstuff 3000 Series Ceramic Brake Pads - Overview - SummitRacing.com

110 for fronts 89 i think for rears but call them to order because the part numbers on the websites are messed up

 

Same here. Dealer replaced under warranty at 19k (one pad was worn to the metal, rest were ok) and greased up the calipers properly. New pads are still going strong with 27k miles on them. Probably going to need all 4 wheels done in the coming months though.

 

stock and i have another option.............. stock

 

Stock pads up front, hawk pads in the rear. R1 concepts cross drilled/slotted rotors all the way around!

No problems here.
