Previously I had posted my rantings of McKenna BMW's inability to fix the squeaky brakes on my car. Well, this weekend I got new wheels and guess what happened - problem solved!!! No more squeaking from the brakes at all. So that's it get bigger wheels with better ventilation and you fixed the problem. As if you needed an excuse to get bigger wheels, now you have one.

i guess you just got lucky..
i went from 18' to 19' didn't feel the difference. Squeak is actually getting worse. I try lubricant (from autozone) is doesn't help either. Just made my rotors greecy. As far as I know the only 100% solution is get a new pads
