you rear brakes are almost worthless. so yes, you can have OEM pads in the back, and trd in the front

So recently, in the mornings, as i drive my car off my drive way, i hear this odd screeching noise (like the ones from bad brakes) but waht puzzles me, is that i am not pushing on the brakes at all. Keep in mind, this is while i'm reversing. I've also noticed that it does that continuosly when i turn on my car and REVERSE out of a parkign spot or whatever.

Whats also odd. is after this reverse screech, i get a continuing screech as i drive foward for about 50~100 feet and it just dissapears..

any inputs?
I dunno if this would help at all.. but I remember whenever I'd turn the wheel all the way to make a turn i'd hear a screeching noise also until I couldn't take it anymore so i turned the wheel all the way and stepped out to look at it.. and there was seriously a long ___ wire connected onto the strut ans spring that was rubbing each time I would turn.. and the wire came from the dealer like that............ because it was all knotted up
