Default Brake question

My breaks are squeeling like a piggy and its fucking annoying, anyone have suggestions on brands to buy? I may just buy some autozone cheapo depot breaks since I really only drive back and forth to work, unless someone knows of a decent brake for a (relatively) cheap price

If you just daily the car, and don't have anything insane for the braking system... Just about anything (even the Autozone/ Pepboys/ Advance) will work for what you're after. It's only for hard driving/ autocross/ track time you need to worry about upgrading pads.

Edit: Despite how all the "regular" auto parts stores will want to upsell you to ceramic pads, they will be most likely be noisier. If the noise is your primary concern, avoid them and just go regs.

Id like something thats quiet and hopefully not too dusty, but other than that I have no need for anything crazy. I guess ill start looking around for some reasonable replacement brakes. I was reading on The Advanced site someone said in there review that one of the sets of rotors only lasted them 10k miles thats why i figured id ask to see whats brands people use that are decent.

Amazon.com: Squeal Medic Brake Squeal & Squeak Cure, 11.25 oz. (M7-25): Automotivelso note that if they are too dusty..get yourself some wheel wax...apply it onto your wheels...and it will make the brake dust VERY easy to remove.
