Way back when I installed everything...

I did the 5 or 6 times of going up to about 40MPH then break....

then another 5 or 6 times around 55MPH....

They dont make a sound at Reg. speeds and braking...

ONLY when I am going under 5MPH then add pressure to the brake...Like going through a Drive-Thru...etc..

i had the same problem... slow speed brake causing a continuous scraping noise..
