[QUOTE="Relaxed Chaos, post: 16622158, member: 64993"] I'm assuming you mean all 4 don't spin by hand, correct? Depending on how you pushed the pistons back and reset the caliper, how you installed the pads, and the angle of the rotor during pad install vs wheel install there might be some misalignment.
