I agree with the other vendors here like Andy and Adam, that this is a street pad and should not be that abrasive. I think they might not have been checked and wore down too far.
you will not hear a "squeal" from endless pads when they have worn down. Please remember to check them.

I have read and comprehended all responses. No offense, I am finished with aftermarket pads. They were only used less than 8,000 miles. Lots of pad life left. I checked.
Thanks

BTW, my front rotors measured .871 (inches I think) O'reilly's computer said .866 inches was the minimum and they need to have at least .030 inches they could shave off. The Nissan dealer said the minimum front rotor spec was .886 inches and that I should have my rotors replaced.
I am doing some searches now to see how long rotors have lasted for others on the forum.

why would you waste a brand new, not cheap set of pads on rotors that are clearly shot?
Either replace the rotors (they are not that expensive), or just toss in cheap pads...and deal with a vibrating steering wheel every couple thousand miles till you replace the rotors and pads together

At 27K miles, I'd say you got pretty good wear out of them. It just depends on how hard you are on them, some people get more, some less.

I actually emailed Endless and they said the pads should be fine, I just need to bed them in again.
