Pad contact on rotor after new install?

Hey guys,
First post here. I just replaced pads and rotors on my E91 328xi wagon. I bought this exact kit from FCP euro: https://www.fcpeuro.com/products/bmw...6ktfr4#fitment

I installed the rear pair yesterday, everything went smooth enough. However after going for the initial drive I noticed the coating has not been removed from the inside part of the rotor. My guess is the pad is not fully contacting the rotor?

I don't imagine the pads are in wrong as the tabs seem to only fit one way, and I copied how the previous pads were set in the caliper. Did I do something wrong? Is this typical? Note it is like this on both sides, so if I installed correctly I did the same on both sides.

Thanks
