When I'm coming to a stop, they seem to stick, and make a funny vibration. Got the Hawk HPS's and Brembo's.. Almost Brand New. WTF?

I told you man, that the stupid cross drilled rotors will give you that vibration. It happens to me all the time.

Well, mine does it in the back, and Boostin's do it on the front. I installed them, and I'm pretty handy with the tools. It almost seems like the calipers arent tight... But they are..



I wonder if those spring things stayed on there, and If they have anything to do with it....

my first question to you is when you were done putting the pads on did your wheel roll freely? if not then you may not have had the pin on the pad lined up with the caliper I found this out when putting mine on. also you have to make sure your bolts holding the caliper on go back in the same hole they came out of they are lettered.

Did you install the shims and clips? These keep the pads from moving around.
