Anyone using Wilwood?

I put a set of these on the front end 13inch slotted/cross drilled rotor and the caliper is 6 piston. Here is a picture:

The only gripe I have about these brakes is the unbearable squeeling. Once it gets down past 20mph it is just a constant screech. Brake dust isn't too bad, could be better.

But they do what they are made for (though in my situation it really is over kill). Put your foot down hard and you will stop ... hard.

Anyone eles use these? Found any pads you like that don't screech too much?

What pads do you have?



If you dont like the noise ship them to me and I'll ship my stock brakes to you, I'll even pay shipping both ways
