Even with the (extra in my case) clips I can feel and hear (window down) the brake pads scrape the disk. Apparently they stick a bit.
A sharp tap on the brake cures it, and so does the occasional dent in the road. Another benefit of running high tire pressure; the bumps get through

For confirmation go to people just like you.
For education go to people unlike yourself.
