7017, ARGH! Squeaky brakes.

Guys, I have real squeaky brakes. Like real bad. I just changed the brake pads not two months ago. Is it my rotors that is causing this problem?

Did you just change the pads only? Whenever you change pads, you either need to have the rotors machined, or get new ones, so the pads can wear in with the rotor correctly. Also, a really hard material pad will squeel a lot more than a softer pad like semi-metalic. A harder pad material will usually stop a little bit better and last much longer, but are noisier.
