rubbing noise after brake change question

07335 · 04-13-2009, 01:28 AM

I changed out my OEM pads to Axxis for the front and posi quiet in the rear. I notice that on the drivers side rear brake, I'm hearing a rubbing sound; almost like the pads are rubbing the rotor. I plan on re-doing this wheel, but wanted to ask if anyone had an idea what might be the cause, or if this will just go away after a while. Thanks.

I took the wheel off, and spun the rotor to see that the rear pads are actually rubbing the rotor. I put the stock pads back in, and no rubbing. The stock rear pads are just about new, but wanted a low dust pad in the rear as well as the front. Do you think the Axxis pads up front, and OEM ones in the rear is a bad idea? Thanks.
