I'm 99.9% sure that the pads are just overly thick. I did not replace the rotors.
So what are my options? I dont have the old pads anymore.

Drag issues makes it sound like something is seizing. Did you clean/lube the sliding pins? Are the pistons moving smoothly in the caliper? If the backplates on the new pads are out of spec, that could also cause drag.
