if i am reading correctly, the rears are no longer having issues and the overheating is occurring on a front wheel where the new pads/rotors were installed? and it was still overheating when the OEM rotor was reinstalled (but the new pad still in place) -- right?

it's possible that the new pads are just that tiny bit thicker and making contact with the rotor? when i had installed new [non-oem] pads, i had the same thing happen on my car. the OE pads have two shims, so i had installed both w/ the new pads-- i went back and removed one shim and that was enough to provide just that bit of additional clearance. no issues since.

edit: actually thinking about it, i removed both backing shims.
