I need some insight... I am running into a problem with my brakes. They are the stock JDM GT Four brakes with Endless brake pads... I changed the pads to get away from the intense squeal and howling that my brakes do... (Rather embarrassing) however that did not fix anything. Any suggestions on what that squeal/howling could be from?

Did you replace the rotors too?

Did your pads come with shims?

yea thats the purpose of shims, its so you dont have that squeal. make sure there is grease as well on the shim.
