GM Ceramics on Eradispeeds here. No squealing and little or no dust. I think the price has been reduced on these if I'm not mistaken.

I'm running Hawk HPS pads on my Eradispeeds, but I am getting a lot of squeal now. May switch to GM ceramics if I can't get them to stop.

I'm running Hawk ferrocarbon but I do not like them because they turn my Baer rotors black, I would stick with ceramics if I were you.

GM Ceramics here. You can't go wrong with these. They should cost you around $100. Good luck.
