People say a sticking caliper will make the inner pad wear faster, but I think it might just be normal for the 9-5. I replaced mine and never had any issues that might arise from sticking calipers, so I don't think they were sticking. Lots of people report this when they change their pads. I would just have them replaced and forget about it. Who quoted the $350? That's not a terrible price to have someone else do them for you. Just make sure you use high quality pads and rotors. If you don't you'll be sorry. The general consensus is to recommend Brembo rotors and Akebono Euro-Ceramic pads. I've got these on the front of my Aero and they work very nicely.
