It's your vehicles way of telling you to change your pads. If the grinding noise is present when you use the brakes, the pad is almost gone. If the noise is present after the brake has been released you're getting close to damaging the rotor and you need to put pads in asap.

Depends on the kind of grinding. The brakes may have been messed with, so you'll getting a constant grinding noise. If the noise is audible when you first turn the vehicle on and it not in motion, then you have other problems. If you only hear it while the vehicle is in motion, then you should take it back to the shop where you got your tires replaced.

What would cause a grinding noise and vibration feeling when you turn the steering wheel or apply the brakes?

take a look at your front rotors if the are not smooth then they need to be changed also check if they are warped that will be a little tricky if you dont know how. best bet is if you havent changed brakes in a while you should go ahead and do it. as far as the turning have your wheel bearings looked at and your tires if the bearing have failed they will cause a squeak or grind and if your tires are too big or out of round that will cause a vibration
