Please let me know any other suggestions. Thanks !!!!!

Do you think the rotors are warped now since they pulsate? A couple things can cause this and I doubt it's the Hawk pads fault.
Things I've found that create a warped rotor ....( no particular order )
1. Washing the car, especially the wheels when the rotors are hot from driving hard.
2. Not
properly burnishing in the brake pads after the install.
3. Cheap junk rotors
4. Not
properly torquing aluminum wheels.
5. Overheating the brakes and not allowing to
properly cool before stopping.
My $.02, feel free to correct me or add your own, this has just been my experience.
