[QUOTE=Captain Snooze;750031]I have DS2500 pads fitted front and rear. The fronts squeal at low speed.This doesn't bother me as I don't drive around town all that much.The backing shims are installed. I am guessing different pads might sort that out. Btw, I had DS2500 pads fitted to the front of my previous car and there was never a hint of noise from them.

I had 2500's in my Audi S3 for over 50000k of road and track.
Virtually no noise.
Put new ones in recently and guess what?
John at VSport suggested that I bevel the edges,so I have, and they're much improved noise-wise.
I just rubbed them to an angle of approx 45 degrees on my concrete driveway.
Very scientific,but it seems to be working....
Cheers
Len
