Could be a warped disc, or could be noise from the grooves. I have it on my EBC grooved discs just as you describe above (and I have read that its common). I had EBC red stuff pads on and the noise was horrible, but I now have DS2500 pads on and its much more livable. Noise might go when you turn the wheel because of airflow dynamics directing the sound away, not actually curing it.

Hope that helps.

Neil
