rear calipers locked up and not releasing. did you release the parking brake when you drove home? i know thats a dumb question but you can never know. did you bleed the brakes when you changed the pads?

New rotors have a coating on them to prevent corrosion. Could just be that. It usually burns off after a few hard braking cycles.

As lucid said make sure the calipers aren't frozen for some reason.

thats a good question. did you just do the pads or both rotors and pads. i have never had the rotors do that to me before.
