sounds as though you have 2 problems. If they are squealing, chances are good you got grease on them when you changed them.

As far as squealing when you turn, it sounds as though something is loose or not in it's original position and moves when you corner so it rubs. Need to look carefully at the components both off the ground and sitting on the ground.

ummmm..... 3cm is more than 1 inch larger. A one inch thicker hub would render the stock studs useless. Are you sure that's what you mean? Maybe 3mm = about an 1/8th of an inch???

Is it possible the pad wear warning fingers are scraping on the rotors?
