wheel squeak...

Hey yall, I have 19' Breyton GTS' and whenever I'm going low speeds I can hear my wheels squeak, its not a solid squeak it sounds like the squeak moves with the wheel. Any ideas on whats causing this? It didn't do this with the stock rims. It's really annoying. Thanks for the help!

Did you use longer lug bolts with the wheels? I have seen a few cases when the lug bolt was a few mm's too long and scraped the rear hub of the car causing a squeak type noise.

I bought the rims used from a guy off of here and they didn't come with lugs so the tire place just used the lugs off of my stock 189's. Is that bad?

brake wear sensor? I know my 06 330i had a recall for this and they replaced all of them along with the pads under recall.

I think as long as you didn't add spacers, OEM bolts should be ok
