+1, I just changed the brakes on my Civic a couple weekends ago, it scraped and "rubs" and makes all kinds of noise - until they get mated up...
They don't make as much in the way of wierd noise now. I imagine with anything more than standard-issue semi-metallic's and plain/smooth new rotors, the noice would be even more-so.
