wheels squeaking. BRAKE PAD worn?
My wheels squeal when they are rolling, and my brakes seem a little weak. does anyone know if the indicator for worn brakes intentionally makes that sound? if so, what is the best brake pad replacement solution? thanks

Sounds like you need pads and rotors. The only real way to tell is to inspect the rotors with the wheels off. If you can snag your fingernail dragging over the rotor, that means your pads have hit the rotors.

brake squeekage doesn't necessarily mean worn pads. It's probably the piston or the top and bottom sides of the pads that are rubbing against the the brake pad bracket. Take off the wheel, and look over the rotor and see how much meat the pad has left. if it's more than 2mm around, then it's good, just take out the pads and lube up the sides of the pads and relube the piston sides also and put it back in. It shoulld help eliminate squeekage.
