I just put a set of Hawk HPS pads on my car.
I broke them in properly and have been driving on them today.
I noticed a burning smell and went to look at the rotors....the rear rotors were a purple color and REALLY hot.
The front pads/rotors are fine.
I took the rear pads off and noticed that only the tops of the rear pads are grabbing the rotor. The bottoms don't grab at all.
Has anyone else had this problem when installing Hawk pads?
Could the pads be unevean? Is there a wrong way of installing them??
Help please.
