The dynamic elasticity [noise suppression] of the shims has a finite life. Historically a new shim set every other pad change seems ideal.
The Nitrile coating {0.005"] changes with temp exposure. A the squeel supression declines in cool weather.

EaglePichers's Wolverine division manufactures 60% or world's shims:
