For front brake pads I like the Axis Metal Masters. For rear shoes I try to
go OEM (dealer).

Subject: Brake Parts Reccommendation/Advice

Happy Saturday.  Looks like it's time for brakes in Gringo.  Running 14in
wheels and 185/14 Hankook RA08s.  Hearing alot of squealing in the front
last couple of days.  Plan to flush system and intall new pads/shoes and
inspect rotors.  Are there any recs on brake pads or just FLAPS?  Anything
else to do while in there besides wheel bearings? Got a Bentley but if there
is an archive on the prject , please LMK.  Thanks in advance.
