New Rotors & Pads Grinding
I'm new to the Evo community and Brembo brakes. I installed some Stoptech slotted rotors and Hawk HPS pads in the rear. I'm hearing a significant grinding noise from both sides, but sounds more significant from the passenger rear. I've heard that some noise is normal for the first few days or couple weeks, but I'm concerned that the level of noise I'm getting is abnormal.
Should the noise be very obvious for a short while and maybe I'm just paranoid? Or is there something important I should check for?

Appreciate the responses, I was able to find the issue! As it turns out, I should have rechecked the work I was confident I did right. If anyone else has this issue: make sure your spring clips that push down on the pads are not installed upside down...

They are left/right symmetrical. They do have a top and a bottom though.

Same issue with autozone pads\rotors? When I got my Evo they supposedly just replaced them.. hasn't been more then maybe 5k miles on the car and I feel like they are already making noise and not feeling "right"...
