Default brake pad question

I have a 2005 h2 sut and I am trying to remedy the brake squeel. My first attempt was I purchased hawk heavy duty pads, that didnt fix the problem. Now I purchased brembo sport rotors and am wondering what you experts would recommend for pads so I get no brake noise. I dont care about brake dust, I just want a quiet pad due to I use the rig for hunting and that noise can be a pain in the ass. Thanks for your help.

even brand new rotors must bet cut/surfaced to ensure they are straight,I have found the factory pads or ceramic pads are the way to go for a nice quiet brake system and you should do all 4 /front and rear at the same time .so grab a can of Brakekleen and have a party .

thanks for the responses. The squeel didnt started till about a year later. So about 1 year ago I put on the hawk pads and still have them, so this time I will replace with the brembo rotors I got on sale when that store had that great sale. I was just curious what you guys recommend for what type pad I should go with. thanks again

I am also having a strange noise in my car right now. I'm not sure if that sound really came from my brake pads. The sound is not like a squeal. it's more of an cranking sound.
