You should take it back to the shop that replaced them and ask. It's possible that something is hung up somewhere that's causing the noise.

Sounds like brakes grinding but its not?
It's hard to diagnose without hearing the noise, but if you're sure that it is not the brakes, it could be dirt/sand/rock in the brakes. If you're hearing the sound all the time (even when not applying the brakes), it could be wheel bearings.
What causes rubbing sound when brakes and rotors have been replaced?
if you did not clean off the rotor of the oil they put on it that is why you have this sound, if not check your caliper slides and make sure it is not frozen, and make sure you do not have a twisted brake line. if it is more of a grinding noise and kinda sounds gritty (even when not braking) i would check your wheel bearings

What is the grinding sound in rt front wheel of ford windstar?
A grinding sound / feel is most typically due to something related to the brakes. In my 2001's case, it was the rotor - even after changing the pads, it was still grinding. 2 new rotors and it was *smooth* sailing, and braking. Sidebar: bad wheel bearings usually create a very noticeable humming - like someone who doesn't know the words to the song... See "Related Questions" below for more about wheel bearings and front brakes
What would cause a loud grinding noise when brakes are applied even after brakes parts has been replaced?
It is a cause and effect thing. Was the other axle inspected if all the brakes, front and rear, were not replaced? Can you tell where it's coming from at all? Is the noise identical from when before the brakes were replaced? Year, make, model and mileage would help as well. Drum on rear? Don't assume the brakes were done correctly. Believe it or not, I have done a few where someone put the pads in backwards with the backing plate against the rotor. If someone worked on it for you, take it back to them and complain.

Why would the brakes on the rear-passenger wheel make a grinding metal-on-metal noise but continue to function properly?
there is a little metal plate that scrapes the rotor to warn you when your pads are getting too warn down True, if you have rear disc brakes. But if, like most cars built before 2000 and many cars built since, you have rear drum brakes, you probably have a loose spring or something of the like. Drum brakes have springs and cables to hold the shoes in position. If a spring snaps, the shoes will be off center in the drum, causing a grinding sound. They may still work like always. Also important is that rear brakes do only 25% of the work. It's possible that the shoes need to be replaced and the drums turned or replaced even if you are able to stop with no problem. Ignoring a problem with brakes will end up costing a whole lot more money in the long run.

What is making grinding noise in tires even when you are not using the brakes?
It's your vehicles way of telling you to change your pads. If the grinding noise is present when you use the brakes, the pad is almost gone. If the noise is present after the brake has been released you're getting close to damaging the rotor and you need to put pads in asap.
