I have a 2003 C2 996 Convertible with squealing brakes.

anyone have recommendations as I don’t see spending a ton for a daily driver with zero track days.

Amazon, eBay, etc?

 

I’ve used Hawk pads, racing to DD, forever, and like their performance (torque, release, wear). I’m running Hawk HP Plus, pretty aggressive on the rotors but stop great! And medium amount of dust. I took off the pads from the PO, Bosch, which worked well for street, DD pads, very little dust and minimal rotor wear, and not very expensive. I saw, but haven’t used, Hawk Ceramics, would trust them to be very good for street driving.

 

Akebono. Ran them on my R with Stoptech 2 piece rotors etc, good grabbing power, and currently run them on my 02 C2. Definitely bed them in properly though.
