Default Rear brakes making funny noise. Help!!!

I recently changed all 4 rotors on my SC430. I went from stock to Brembo Drilled/Slotted along with brake pads (Akebono Ceremic Premium Pads). Ever since I changed the rotors, my rear brakes have been make a funny noise when applying brakes. It seems like right rear side is louder than the left rear side.

It really hard to discribe the noise. The best I can discribe is like some put a baseball card on a bike so it touchs the spoke very slightly and as the wheels turn, the card touches the spoke making a noise.

I know for a fact its not the pads because I changed my rotors about 1 1/2 weeks ago and thats when it started to make funny noise so I changed the pads 2 days ago. I originally thought it was comming from the pads since they were very worn but even after the changing the pads, its still there.

I know for sure, it not a squeaking noise. Its really unique. My brake performs great. No issues with performance.

I took the brakes apart, check the pads, rotors and behind the rotors and everything seems to be fine.

I can figuer whats causing the noise. Its just very annoying. I think it may have to do with slotted/drilled rotors.

Does anyone know what may be causing this noise? Has anyone experienced it?

You input & thoughts will be greatly appreciated.

Thanks

Yes I did. Its been 2 weeks since I insstalled the new pads and its still making the noise. I am pretty sure its the rotors.

Its the slots that are making the noise (I think!!!).
