Yes...Squeal away! Who needs a horn anyway!! Working on a good (= cheap, durable and quiet) solution from Performance Friction...We need 10 players for their Zrated street brakes (go through RRE)

I've been using them on my Dodge (365,000 miles) on the tenth set of front pads(thank you Auto Zone lifetime garranty) and third set of rear shoes...second set of rotors (let the pads get to them they were not worn out)...oem rotors lasted 250K these are STREET pads but good ones
