Just replaced the rotors and new pads. The pads are semi metallic. I’ve noticed a brief rubbing sound when coming to a complete stop and when lifting my foot off the brake pedal from a stop. Is this normal for metallic pads?

If it's just a sound, and the brakes are performing otherwise as expected, I'd chalk it up to metallic brakes, especially if the sound were roughly uniform from all corners. I'm not there to hear it, though.

For sure. I only have discs in fro t and it sound like front and back. I’ll see if I can get a recording.
