So I installed new pads and rotors on an s13 coupe and the pads are rubbing pretty bad on the rotors, to the point where the front right wont even move. The pads are in correctly as far as i know. Anybody know possible causes or fixes for this? Thanks in advance.

If you didn't change the caliper then the caliper is probably bad.

Calipers were fine before changing pads and rotors.

The one that is stuck wasn't harder to compress back in?
I have had calipers that I can press in but still stick, but they usually are hard to compress the piston.

u sed u changed the rotors if u did
did u buy the ABS rotors theey are slightly bigger
I experienced that they fit and everything wen u put them on but wen u drive it also scrapes on ure caliper and the brake pads get stucks to the rotors...

I believe they were the abs rotors, but i got it now, just had to compress the calipers more. Thanks guys.
