Jenna thanks for all your help and I guess I should have stated this earlier I replace the whole rear when I replaced the baer calipers (since I couldn't just buy one caliper) I went with stop tech drilled/slotted rotors an Oem calipers on the rear with Oem lines.

AH ok, so you no longer have the BAERs. Well, my next question of course, is did you bleed them correctly, season the rotors, and bed the pads? :)

I believe i bled them correct i bled the rear only started from the furthest from the master cylinder and fluid was flying out with no air bubbles as far as season rotors and bed pads no i didnt do any of that. ive put about 200 miles on the rear set-up without a single issue till today that just seems weired because if beding pad n seasoning rotors is a main factor it should have showed signs prior to 200 miles IMO

Parking brake shoes? Do you have the setup like my NNBS where I have parking brake shoes that sit inside rear rotor? You said you installed new rotors. Maybe the old rotors were worn enough and when you installed the new rotors, both Baer and OEM you forgot to reset the rear shoes.

Yes my brake shoes sit inside my rear rotor. IMO if the brake shoes was bad why would my rear calipers be smoking/holding And my front calipers be holding??? And I never knew you had to reset rear shoes after installing new rotors. How do you do that???
