Default Need to replace stock breaks please help!

Alright I was just at the dealer today and basically my front breaks are shot at around 21000 miles, I have stock 17 inch wheels. I asked if I could get aftermarket pads and they made a big deal about how they would always squeak. My first question is, is this true? Second what type of pad should I get, I was leaning more towards the Hawks because of the break dust issue. Third where did you guys get them installed? especially you people located in either Naples or Orlando Florida. Thanks again

The stock pads are the squeeky and dusty of all the pads...

Hawk HPS or NISMO Pads will reduce brake dust and not be as squeeky...

Stop tech brake rotors are also cheeper then the stock rotors and cool better when rotating...
