I think I don't even have shims on my a1rm pads and they still don't squeel

Same here. First time I installed them, they did, just filed the surface and chamfered, been silent ever since.

Squeal came back, so just went and bought some soft compound pads, worked like a charm, no more squeal.
Only bad thing is, they dont stop as good as my other pads haha ):

Thanks for all the help and advice guys, really appreciate it

Didn't you say to give it a week to judge the squeel?

Yea i gave the chamfered/sanded ones a week because i could hear a different frequency of squeal, which from past experiences resulted in the frequency getting worse and worse. But with these pads, there was no noise at all

I did a few hard brakes, went to a industrial are and did a few u turns and different styles of braking to get the brakes to squeal and no noise! Did some light braking, heavy braking, braking in car parks, braking with the steering wheel in full lock, steering wheel in half lock etc...., and no noise at all, not even at the slightest. Where as last week, even though the pads were sanded, i still had some level of squeel ( @ < 10kph) which i was willing to live with, until it got back to its horrible form like it did last night (@ < 50kph x 1000000 decibles)

Pads are rather spongy though. Perfect for my daily drives though.

Glad you got it sorted, though as you say braking isnt quite as good with the soft pads...

Keep the others track
