I doubt that different pads are going to take care of the pulsating. That's got to be a rotor problem (warped). I could be wrong, but I don't see how the pads are causing it.

This is what it sounds like to me too, and I am not convinced that it's a problem!

Edited to add: If it is the rotors, I would be interested in knowing how they got hot enough to warp!!
