awesome thanks guys. The baer's are loud, I mean really loud, even with different pads. I've tried 4 or 5 sets of pads, talked to the baer reps, changed/adjusted every component to the brake system twice. I've been to 4 different shops and all of the shops have thrown their hands up. I've heard...

I'm looking a different front brake options. I've read in the corvette forums that stoptech is the best brakes on the market. Is anyone running stoptech's? I've also been looking at Brembo's and wildwood's, I'm not considering Baer brakes since this is what I'm ripping out of my car since they...

I have them in the front, still running drums in the rear. I've had the brakes set at a perfect 90 and they would work fine for the first week or so. Then they would start to squeal after they would heat up. After 2 to 3 weeks the car would become deafening. I followed the bedding process to a T...

I've bedded 4 different sets of pads. They have all squealed over time. It was explained to me that this has been a problem with the baer ss4's. No pad is going to stop/prevent this noise. Trust me I've spent two years trouble shooting these pads with baer and the best GN guys in my area. In...

I've talked to baer and they said that the squealing is a problem they've had with the ss4s. They have new pads that are supposed to help with the noise but they haven't been tested. I can't help but feel ripped off. I'll be going back to the stock brakes and buying new spindles since I like the...

Not yet. I've ordered new pads and I'm going to take the dust shields off. They don't seem to be heating up as bad but the squealing is terrible. I'm not sure why the rotor won't spin freely since it's a fixed calliper and they are centred over the rotor. Im hoping thinner pads will do the job.

Original paint, just had restore fx done, vey happy with the results

Thanks guys for helping me trouble shoot, I'll look into some of these things. I've tried a few different compound pads. I've been using these soft green pads. Not sure of the name. They have worked the best since I can get about two weeks of driving before the squealing get to intense. I ended...

every component to the braking system is new. When I apply the brakes lightly they squeal. If I stomp on the brakes, no squeal. I've been talking to Baer and they haven't come up with anything, besides shortening the push rod or adding the dust shield. I've had the brakes bled numerous times and...

I've been having issues with the baer ss4 front brakes. They have been over heating and squealing after 5mins of normal driving. I'm at the point where I'm considering ripping them out. Ive had the hydroboost, brake lines, and callipers all replaced. I've also tried 4 different sets of pads and...
