Default Help --brake squeal

If I replace the rotors with after market ones will this stop the incessant squeal from my after market pads.
This is definately a cheaper option than factory pads

Default Sorry, ...

The pads normally have much more of an effect on brake squeal than the rotors.<ul><li><a href="http://www.babcox.com/editorial/bf/bf80426.htm">Silencing Brake Squeal</a></li></ul>
