Expensive??
Anyone know of aftermarket ones that are cheaper than buying brand new oem ones at a dealer but perform better/similar?

How much are OEM brake pads and discs anyway?
I'm on STI brake pads and they don't squeal when cold, only when they are upto temperature and I don't find them annoying. Hawk HPS brake pads now that's annoying! |

For a pure daily, stock pads are fine. If you want cheaper, look for street pads that fit your price range.
I daily project mu club racers in the summer and don't find them that bad at all once bedded. I swap to stock pads for winter though, don't need to be wasting good pads on snow tires.

I've had Hawks/Carbotechs/Project Mus/Ferodos. They are all tolerable wrt to squeal if you bed them in properly. Any semi-metallic pad with increased coefficient of friction over stock will squeal like a pig if you don't bed them properly. Do it on the track or find a long quiet stretch of country road where you can progressively get the pads hot without attracting any attention to why you're driving like a lunatic, then cruise without using the brakes until they cool, and you'll get a nice even transfer layer that will not only eliminate squeal but make your braking characteristics much better.
