Hawk brake pad squeal?
Anyone else have Hawk street pads on their car? I get a slight squeal when at a red light and moving vey slowly, say 5mph..It's annoying, is there a fix or am I stuck with the squeal?...

Shouldn't happen....my car never did that. How old are your pads? Are they the HPS version? That's what the majority use for the street, and I have never seen a noise complaint in all the years on the forum....and that's a lot of friggin' years!

I ran a set of Hawk HPS pads on my '00 for probably 4+ years and never had any squealing issues. Not sure why your's would be doing that.
