I'm trying to decide on a type of new brake pads. I had the front rotors and pads replaced about 5 months ago or so. The front brakes have sqeaked on and off since then. I've had them checked about 6 times and everyone tells me the brakes are fine. The brakes may be fine but i want to get rid of the squeaking. I found some kevlar brake pads and was wondering if that's be better than the semi-metallic that's on it right now. Or should i just do the ceramic. All of them need replaced so i was looking for a cheaper alternative then all ceramic. I do normal driving. Any tips on brakes would be a plus.

It's a 98 AWD.

Thanks.

I replaced my pads with ceramic ones and I still have brake noise every now and then. So I don't think replacing them will do anything about it. If you find something that gets rid of it let me know.

Will do. Oh and if anyone has heard of the brand Lomandi, please let me know your experiences.
