Brakes issue
squeaky front brakes, brake pads were replaced 500 miles ago, the sound is awfully loud, what are my options?
Thank you

Several reasons brakes squeal. Too much metalic in pads, rotor surface has hot spots or not properly finished, brake hardware needs replacing. Make sure caliper sliding pins/surface is clean and lubed. My first guess is pads, at least from my experience.

I had this same problem with my brakes, I tried every type of solution or way to fix it even replaced the pads still no relief from the loud noise.. until I just upgraded to the ceramic brake pads.. its a much needed upgrade it gets rid of noise and there is very little brake dust anymore.
