New Pads and rotors, front and rear.

On the Rear Brakes: The new Brembo discs with Textar pads are squealing pretty loud when I apply the brake. The rear are ATE caliper w/ ABS have the (anti-squeal) shims installed. I will camfer the biting edge, and sand and clean the rear pads as a check.

The Front Girling w/ ABS with ATE power Discs and Textar pads are quiet.

Should I use softer Brake pads (Like Repco, etc) for the rear ATE calipers?
