A RUBBING SOUND COULD BE SEVERAL THINGS. COULD BE WHEEL BEARING , DID YOU JUST REPLACE THE ROTORS.? IF SO DID YOU MAKE CERTAIN THE ROTORS WERE SEATED PROPERLY. SOMETIMES YOU DONT GET THEM TIGHT ENOUGH AND THEY WILL WOBBLE AND MESS UP THE BEARING. COULD BE THE CV JOINT IS GOING BAD IF THE CAR IS PRETTY OLD THAT WILL HAPPEN AND YES IT WILL SOUND LIKE A RUBBING NOISE MORE GRINDING BUT COULD SOUND LIKE RUBBING. YOU COULD JUST HAVE A WARPED ROTOR IS THERE A FLUCTUATION IN THE BRAKE PEDDAL WHEN YOU STEP ON IT TO STOP.? JACK UP THE CAR AND PUT SOMTHING BEHIND THE BACK WHEELS, PUT IT IN NEUTRAL AND SPIN THAT TIRE SEE IF YOU HERE ANYTHING...IF YOU DO MAYBE BEARING. DRIVE THE CAR AND SEE IF THE NOISE GETS WORSE WHEN YOU MAKE TURNS....CV JOINT GOOD LUCK............
