Default Wheels really hot

Just changed my entire brake system, rotors, pads, calipers and brake hoses and my wheels are still super hot and smelly

So the back has the parking brake. Perhaps your parking brake is adjusted too tightly against the brake hat? Did you have trouble getting the rotors back on? If so, you should check the parking brake.
