Where's the sound coming from!?!?

Hey guys I need help with a sound. I changed my front Pads and rotors on saturday because I kept hearing a metal on metal sound that bad brakes make. The sound happens when i'm slightly turning to the right not to the left or going stright. the new brakes didn't stop the sound. Its the driver side that the sound is coming from. Plus both front rotors wiggal a little bit from front to back is that ok??? I don't think its the wheel hub, not the right sound. Please help guys!

Thumbs up

Needs lubed and clean for calipers to apply even pressure,cleaning will prolong them quite a bit!

I agree to check for your backing plate to be touching.

When does your rotor wiggle? With the wheel on or off? The rotor should be hald in place with the wheel and lug nuts on. But with the wheel off it will wiggle.

All lured up, chips are on. The sound started before I changed the brakes thats why I did the brakes in the first place. I was thinking the backing plate was rubbing the rotor because of the wiggle but the old rotor didn't have a scratch mark and the backing plate didn't have any worn spots. Any thoughs???

With the tire off and with it on.

Hmm are you sure your not talkin about the Caliper? If yor rotor freely wiggles I wouldnt drive it! Could be a bad hub/wheel bearing.
