I've had some cases where they're dead silent and others where they make some noise during the first thousand or so miles and then dead silent after that. Rotor condition and quality plays a big part. Pads are far more likely to make noise if the rotors are reused or low quality.
Good point. I am still on my original OE rotors, however I had Hawk HPS pads on a previous car with brand new rotors and the noise was even worse and never went away. I thought these new 5.0 Street pads were supposed to at least solve the noise issue. Even my mechanic tried to talk me out of the Hawks because of the noise issues he had with them. So at this point I feel like I would be throwing money away buying new rotors just to solve this.
This thread is 9 pages long and surprisingly we still don't have a go to street pad figured out. I think most of us are looking for OE performance with slightly less dust. I'm contemplating just going back to OE pads and dealing with the dust.
