you need to remove the caliper and brake pads, if you change the rotors, you must as well change the pads, sometimes the pad form to the rotor and if the rotor is warped and what not...it would be forming to the old rotor which wouldnt be the same width and the new rotor and could cause problems

Suggested Repair

Remove the caliper and brake pads to replace the front rotors, and install new pads at the same time so they are not formed to the old rotor.
