Brake Pad Help!!!!
Bought new Hawk HPS pads, and got the frontgdrivers side on ok. Trying for the front passenger side and i have the pistons pushed in as far as they go and the caliper doesnt fit over the rotor....probably by a 1/16". If i bang on it hard enough, it will probably eventually slip on.. .
Any help?? should new pads fit that tightly against the rotor that it doesnt spin at all?? Any help is appreciated!!

I haven't had to deal with stuck sliding pin yet. They should move smoothly in/out to allow for pad wear (since the calipers only have pistons on one side).
