I recently put on a set of FP W Springs and my brembo brakes are squeaking quite a bit.

Is this normal after having removed the calipers and rotors and reinstalling? I mean I dont see what I could have gone wrong since they only fit one way. Thanks!

When I put on my lowering springs with Brembo's I had a bunch of squealing on a test drive. Went back home and pulled the front wheels. I found that I had slightly bent the dust shield on one side when reinstalling the brakes and it was making contact with the disc. Might check to see if that is the case.

This was exactly the problem. All is good. Thanks again!
