Did you break your pads in correctly? Your pads are brand new. They will take a while to get groove of your rotors. Mine do the same give it about 2-3 weeks.

yeah, it takes a bit time for the pad and rotor get used to each other, if problem remains, better check them out, might be the pad or rotor off the position a bit, (for what i think)

yea i did the bedding part i followed it exactly as it said on the instructions, maybe i did do it enough, i did like 10 stops from 35-40 mph to 5 mph
and then like 5 stops from 50 to 10 mph, i just hope it wont keep doin it, because i bought the best pad out there.
