Did you try busting the glaze on the rotors before installing the new pads? If you haven't, take a fine-grit sandpaper or emery cloth and lightly go over the entire contact surface of the rotor in a swirling motion. Then clean the parts up real good with brake cleaner to get rid of any particle residue.
