I changed my brake pads and realized at the end I may have swapped the inner and outer pads on the rear tires. I’m not 100% sure but I think the piston in one of the tires is pressing against the black pins like the top pad in the picture.

Should I correct this immediately or can I get by until my next change?

    Thank you I went ahead and swapped them. RockAuto threw me off by rubber banding the inner pads together so I thought that was the set. But hey you live and learn. Thankfully everything was pre loosened so it didn’t take me nearly as long to swap.

      Yeah always double check because there doesn’t seem to be any standard if things are packaged as sets of inner and outer or inners together and outers together.
