If you drove with air in your system, you must bleed all the calipers now.
Ask someone to help you (just to pump brake pedal)
Begin by rear passenger caliper
Don't remove your wheels (acess by inside wheel under the car)
1- Ask your helper pumps brake three time and ask him to hold the pedal after the 3rd time; then loose bleed bolt until that your helper tell you that pedal is completely touches the floor.
******Pedal must be held until the bleed bolt is retighten.******
2- Repeat that 5 times for each wheels or more if you hear air when fluid
goes out.
Wheel bleed order:
Rear passenger
Rear driver
front passenger
front driver

Did you get them on ebay for like $60 shipped?
Those may have been mine if so, you got a good deal, those pads alone cost me $55 and it cost me $35 to ship from Atl.
Anyhow make sure you have the correct caliper on the driver/pass side. You will know as the bleeder valve will be on the top side of the piston.
If that isn't your problem I suggest getting a set of $15 russell or similar speed bleeders.
I used them and they work great, best one man bleed around.
