Your symptoms seem to be very similar to mine. However, I am not sure that I agree with your explanation that the pads are grabbing much higher in the pedal than before brake replacement. The difference in the thickness of the brakes is compensated for by piston extension in the caliper. So regardless of brake thickness, the distance between the caliper piston and the pads should be the same. Therefore pedal travel should not change. Somebody please correct me if I am wrong.
