i can back that up. if you want quiet and dependable, go oem. if you want performance or cheapy breaks then squeaks are going to happen, esp. any time it rains. squeaks dont always mean they are worn. sometimes humidity or road debris can cause it. actually waiting for them to start making noise isnt smart. in most instances when the pads wear down to the warning tang there is usually only about 2mm or less of the pad lining left. best to check them out every once and a while, it will save you from having to pay for rotors to be cut or replaced too. since brakes arent warrantied, get whats best. simple as that.
