I bought some ceramics from Advanced auto and they squeak like hell.I am not sure of spraying the pads would even help.

my favorites are the factory pad the car came with - they last like a crazy amount of miles like 70K or even 80K making the best pads also quite the bargain, and completely silent!

Very true, but I still wouldn't wanna go to the stealership.Someone must be selling them on ebay and what are the OEM name of them?

ebay link - here ya go!

PS - the OEM is Sumitomo and the pads are made special for LS400 - no OE equivalent

i'm a fan of axxis deluxe ceramics for a simple OEM+ upgrade.

EBC Reds for anything above that.

i got my ceramic pads from advance and am very happy with them. i put 50-75 miles on my LS mon-fri. no noise at all. they didnt have ceramics for the rear so i had to use semi-metallic those dont make any noise either.

Same here, no noise. I've had them on for almost 4 years, 41k miles. Fronts are about down to half and the backs look barely touched. Although, I do ALWAYS downshift the car so I guess I use less brakes then most people.

blkstealthpaid4, Did you change over the shims on the pads?

I *think* my dad got "Red Stuff" pads for my car. I kind of liked my squeaking though... it was like a ship leaving port whenever I left
