new tires installed......... brake pads scraping
Hey guys
About a week ago i had some commander II tires put on, well the front and rear brake pads are scraping... before the tire change it wasn't doing this... been about 600 miles since the tires were put on.... was thinking it might go away but hasn't .... what did the guy do possibly when changing out the tires to cause this.... was thinking about taking it back in, just wanting a little info before talking with him

Don't why he would need to pull the pads out of the caliper if he did. Pull your front pads and see if the are installed properly. I use a spray from permatex to reduce brake sqeel, it's tacky and the pads tend to stick to the pistons. I changed pads a couple of weeks ago and they are set/bedded in pretty good.
Just thinking, are the axle spacers in on the correct sides?

Take it back!
