Dont think that's the case, they are as good as new pads as I put them in a month prior to the Euros. And with the coin spacer, it was pretty much dead center.
Since we are on the subject matter, I won one of these at one of the polo tourneys and gave them away! http://www.wiggle.com/birzman-protective-front-fork-spacer/

If the old pads were worn and one of the pistons was a bit sticky, the other one could move far enough for the seal to be ineffective. Normal pad spacers are a little thinner than a pound coin, but as they sit in the caliper slot the pistons can't come further out than 1mm from the centreline.
