Question 04 Ram 1500 - Font end

I have an 04 ram 1500. Lately I've noticed that the front wheels are very hot to the touch. Doesn't seem to matter if I drive 10 miles or 100 miles. I'm wondering if my front calipers are sticking. I recently replaced the front pads with ceramic pads. Anyone ever had this issue? When I lifted the front end the wheels are not easily turned by hand. Thanks.

That sounds like a Very good possibility that calipers are not releasing right does both sides seem to be the same and does it seem like while driving the steering wheel try's to pull one way a little after brake or at all times I just in the last few weeks have had to replace Calipers on my dads truck and my Grandfathers motor home for same reason
