[Closed] Discs squealing in the wet

XO trail brakes, uber race matrix pads and uber rotors which are both new, so contamination isn't likely. Any sign of water and they make so much noise. Sometimes the rear level also seems to pull closer to the bar than usual. Any suggestions as to how it can be fixed or do all discs make noise in the wet?

I recently fitted those same uber pads because superstar were out of their kevlar ones.

Worst pads I've used in a long time, and hideously noisy. Feels like the whole bike is vibrating.

I've used my x0 trails in the wet today for the first time with standard fitted avid organic pads and they are very noisy in the wet, goes after a prolonged descent mind and they've been absolutly silent in the two weeks prior dry spell

Pads just squeal in the wet some more than others I'd say

Never tight it might be the pads. Which pads for the wet then?
