I'm running Porterfield R4S paes all the way around. I've had the squeal with stock and the Porterfields. I had the rotors turned after 40k miles, and the squeal is gone. They were slightly warped.

NAPA has ceramic pads for the front and rear. Not cheap, but they don't squeel either.

Napa Ceramics

I think the napa ceramics are great, a little expensive but I had a really bad squeal and changed to the ceramics all around, this stopped the squeal and really imporved braking, plus no brake dust!!

Front Brake Pads - CMX-7576
Rear Brake Pads - CMX-7584
