Well, first off my brake pads are way overdue for a replacement. This is my first car so I'm in the dark on the best choice for good brake pads. I needs to be good quality but not expensive. On top of this, when I am pulling out and turning, I will still hear slight grinding like I would if the brake was down cause of how worn out they are. This might be a problem, let me know if it sounds familiar. Thanks!

Grinding of the brakes, what do you mean??... that shouldnt be happening around corners it may be a more serious problem like a bearing or something especially if its on corners... you might have to look into that...

If im pulling out onto a road, even though my foot is not on the brake it will sound like they are engaged because I hear the griding of what sounds like worn down brake pads. Once the wheels are turned back it stops.

yer im thinking that it might be a bearing or a join in the arms because you say it goes away when straight... change the brake pads and see if it stops but if it dosent take a close look at the brushings and joins... the bearing would be the last option...

Alright thanks, now recommend me some good brakes please!

what year are you driving... and your just runing stock calipers???

[chopper202]

sorry just had a mind blank... dosent matter what year you are driving... Ummm people round here put me on to hawk HPS pads and you can feel the difference over stock instantly... I bought mine over in Australia so im not sure how much they would be. They will be a little more expensive than stock but not alot... But its really worth it stock pads are a waste of time...but im assuming ur instaling them yourself not going to a dealer???

Correct, Ill install them myself. Ill check into those pads as well.
