New brake pads rubbing. wait or do something?

I realize this is sort of extreme but the brake dust I'm getting from my HPS pads is unreal. (4 days and wheels are black) (w/ Brembo btw)

Pads were installed at Stillen so I'm assuming that's not the problem.
Tried standard rotors and cross drilled with same result.

Should I just let them wear out a little or maybe turn the rotors?

(Rubbing = jacked up the car and turned front wheels by hand. Only got about 1/4 a revolution.)

Any input welcome. Thx

Bring it back to the shop.

If you have resistance especially if it is not consistent when turning the wheel there may be an issue.

When I installed mine you could hear them rubbing ever so slightly but it was the same all around when I turned the wheel. At no point did it grab more than others.
