Is this normal? (stock advan tires)
the stock tires are pretty soft, maybe they just started to flatspot a little bit from sitting for 4-5 days? On cold days I can feel my tires smooth out once I'm past the first couple of miles of driving.
It's very common for the rotors to rust and get hung up with the pads. Same thing will happen if you park the car with hot brakes on a very cold day but the pads will be stuck to the rotors with frozen condensation and more common with drums and parking brakes being used.

OK the last part of your post rings a bell. You know what? Its the freakn tire shine you use. they can get on the actual driving part of your tires. You're lucky that happened in your garage. My bro skid in his car cuz he's a dumbass who over used the tire shine. So be careful with that thing hehe. Enjoy your MR. Can't wait for mines 
^NOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!! u beat me to it lol!!!
Is funny cuz it sounds like he left the parking brake engaged while he was backing up and then noticed this much later but he was so scared it was something else that he unconciously dropped the parking brake at one time and felt like suddenly the car started to run right again.
I say this cuz I admit I done that 2 or 3 times, not while getting out of my garage but when i'm in heavy traffic or at a street light. I just forget I have the parking brake engaged and I drive away like a dumbass then I realize the car isn't moving like it should and find the culprit soon after that.
Anyways like many members said already before me, when u wash your evo the first thing you clearly notice is those rotors starting to look orange cuz of the water mixing up with the metal= oxidation but at a faster rate. Luckily the pads brushes all of that material off the rotors once you start driving and using your brakes....I don't even know why i'm explaining all this, I must be really bored
. Is all good.
