Default I may get new rotors and pads. What do U recommend?

Well, my left front wheel is squeeking very loudly, and at all speeds. But, when brakes are applied, the noise stops. So, I think it may have something to do with the hub bearing. But in the case ithas something todo with the brakes, I am interested in getting new rotors and pads. Id thinking about gettin powerslots. So, what pads and rotors do u guys have experience with/ or like? I guess hawk pads and powerslots are an appropriate combo.

Without any question, Hawk HPS pads, about $70/set online.
Powerslots, because of the plating, about $110ea. I ahave almost 90,000mi on mine, and only half used. The Hawk HPS pads are EXTREMELY clean for chrome wheels, and the Powerslots stay looking good for years.
MAKE SURE YOUR LUGS ARE HAND TORQUED AT 100#!!!!!!!!!! Double check after 50mi.

sounds like the indicator one of the pads is touching a rotor, and theres a good chance all you need is pads.
