Did you bed your brakes after the install? Sounds to me like you have uneven pad material deposits on your rotors, causing judder.

Also, there was one instance where one of the pads were put in backwards by someone here. I think his complaint was quealing though.

Here's the bedding instructions - Instructions for bedding in your brakes.

If the rotors are new you should season them. If the pads are new, you should bed them.

And...check the torque on your wheels!
