Fitted new EBC pads, now I have a Brake noise - anyone else? Any fixes?

[Stumpy31]

Hello Spyder lovers
New to the forum and I have a 24 Spyder RT Limited with just over 10k miles and I've just slapped a set of EBC sintered brakes pads on the front, and I now have what is best described as a “ringing” noise when braking above 20mph or so. I did not change the rotors and I noticed the EBC pads do not have slots in them, so I believe it may be air being trapped between the pad and drilled rotors. Has anyone else had this issue and maybe found a remedy/
Thank you

Did you bed the new pads in with 2-3 quick stops from 40 mph?

Yes.. tried several times… I have about 200 miles on them now and it’s the exact same noise as when it started… hasn’t gotten worse or better… brakes feel good so I’m just going to use them up and may go back to factory. They do not have the squeal that the factory’s had so I’m just going to ride it out… excuse the pun… lol

To stop disc brakes from squeaking, you should put isopropyl alcohol or disc brake cleaner on the rotors, or apply anti-squeal brake paste strictly to the back of the brake pads. Never put oil, grease, or lubricants on the braking surfaces of the pads or rotors.
