Default Brake's pads

I put new EBC pads on the front. The pads are pretty tight against the rotor,I ran it a little way's, stopped and checked the rotor's they were warm...did not use the front brake's....Is there any way to adjust these thanks

I doubt you were able to push the caliper all the way in before installing the pads. I use a pair of welder's type vise-grips.

I hate to mention this but you can also loosen the bleeder valve to relieve some of the pressure so you can compress the caliper all the way in. The problem is you might get air into your line this way if you don't time it just right.

I have used EBC pads and many others. Hondas have plenty of extra space that pad thickness should not be an issue.
