Brake Pads
Hey guys, my brakes are squeaky as s**t and I can't handle it anymore. I'm fairly certain my brake pads are the problem. I purchased fairly Cheep ones and hear squeaking in the front and back. Replaced all my rotors and that did not help. Wondering what's a good brand for pads that people are running, or if there's something I've missed. Thanks

I run the factory performance pads in the front with no issues.
FRONT PADS | Genuine Mopar | 68044866AC
From the "brochure".
"“The NIBK Premium High Performance Ceramic friction pads.”
•Provide superior stopping ability under all weather conditions.
•Noise-free and reduced vibrations - fitted with the industry's best pre-attached rubber-core shims
•Dust Less - Protect the environment & keep those rims shiny.
•Rotor Friendly - long lasting non abrasive friction material will extend your brake disc life and reduce maintenance costs
•Direct Fit application.
•Perfect upgrade to OE brake pads.
I call BS on the "dustless" claim though.

Consider it a learning experience that can be remedied. Buy cheap-pads, pay more to try to correct problem-rotors, then buy middle of the price range to solve issue-change out new pads. It happens. Most of us have been there at one time or another.
Now you know that when you go to buy a house you don't want the cheapest or the most expensive on the same street.

I had squeeky OEM pads after maybe 20k-25k or so. I'm not hard on pads, and when I replaced them they had plenty of meat. I changed to EBC 7000 series ceramics and have had no issues since. They break themselves in too which is nice.
