its rubbing on the rotor sorry. i took off the wheel and i didnt notice anything. 1 thing tho is that 1 of my lugs is snapped off and has been for a while. think the pressure of 4 lugs being tight and 1 not warped the rotor or something?

yea, the pads are supposed to rub the rotor, thats how you brake lol.

unless you hear a squeal (the wear indicator), that means that your pads are possibly getting low.

you could have a high spot on your rotor. take the wheel off and turn the rotor using the wheel studs.

or take it to a shop and get it inspected by someone that knows what they are doing
