What pads are you guys using that doesn't squeal?
 
Hello guy, I'm currently using OEM break pads and rotors on my g37 with sports break and the squealing is so loud that it's so embarrassing when coming up to a stop light and stop sign.. It happens when I break really really slow. Im getting tired of going to the dealership so I want to get new aftermarket breaks that doesn't squeal. What are your recommendations? Please state brand and price. Thank you!

Are you sure the squealing isnt the pad wear indicators contacting the rotor when you brake?

Well, I went Infiniti dealership multiple times and they could not find the problem and assumed it was a brakes dust and said its normal for these high proformance breaks.

The OEM pads aren't high performance.

I'm just a noob.. Still learning! :bowdown:

Ceramics will keep the noise and dust down quite a bit. Great street pads with nice initial bite, but not a pad I would suggest on any track environment. I've ran Akebono and Posiquiet ceramics on three of my four Audis and it was a world of difference noise/dust wise.

Akebono ProACT for low dust and noise

I just bought my G37 a month ago and just installed Akebono ProACT pads also. No squealing whatsoever compared to the oem ones that I replaced.

Did you get both front and back? And how much you got them for and where? Thanks for your help man!

I bought both the front and back. My G37 is the 2010 sedan journey model by the way.

Front was about $56, Akebono ACT888 ProACT.


Back was about $42, Akebono ACT905 ProACT.


Hope that helps.

Does it stop as good as OEM? I like how the OEM feels but just can't stand the squealing that's all
