Default My Brakes

my brakes have been squeaking for a week now. And i looked on the inside of my wheels and there is some type of brake fluid clumped in certain spots of the wheel what is this a sign that i need brakes or something major.

Do you mean squeaking or squeaLing like a little girlie pig? If it's squealing, I think those are signs that you need to replace your brake pads. As for squeakin, I dunno what to tell you.

what about sparks flying out of the wheels when braking
Kelly's car w/ Hawk Blues was sparking like a firecracker last night

Uh...

Seriously, I wouldn't drive the car until I fixed the problem. I'd check all brake line connection points, and caliper seals. If the seals are busted, you'll need to rebuild the calipers, which is a pain in the ***.

Hopefully it's something simple like a loose connection.

Heh. I had blue and yellow flames bellow out for an instant every time I went into a hard braking zone at the last auto-x.

Too lazy to swap out the Hawk blues for auto-x. I wish they wouldn't paint them blue anymore.
