Front brakes still "rub" when pedal is relseased

[Redwein]

I don't think this is necessarily a problem but we just finished adding the brake fluid and bleeding the brakes (Wilwood front and back). The pedal feels firm and seems to stop (only checking by turning wheels while car is on jack stands). Our question is, when not pushing the pedal, you can still hear some slight contact between the rotors and the pads on the front. Given that there is no spring on the 6 piston Willwood brakes to retract the pads on the front, I believe this is to be expected. Any thoughts?

Thanks in advance.

Normal.

A slight contact is normal and nothing to worry about. As you pointed out, there is no spring to retract the pads.
