They will squeek, pulsate, chatter and make any other damn noise as well being those rotors are bad. Not to mention cause uneven wear on the new pads. Personally I would get new ones. Not sure if they are composite, but you can't turn the composite rotors w/o having issues later on. Better to fork over for some new ones so you don't have issues down the road.

Re: Brakes.
Well did the pads you bought come with that anti-squeek goo or were they designed not to make any noise?
Cause if you used the anti-squeek goo that your sposed to smear on the pads then it shouldn't squeek at all.

Re: Brakes.
Anti squeek goes behind the pads....to take up space and dampen any noise from stuff vibrating.
Those rotors gotta be replaced, they been ground down too much by the RIVETS in the brake pads....just an idea...when you push the brake pedal and hear metal on metal grinding, it's time for you to replace your pads AND your rotors, cause they are fucked
