Noise From Rear Of Car

I have this noise I notice when I come to any stop pretty much.
I have narrowed it to the rear drivers side of the car. It's a noise
almost like a rock in a tire, or kinda like a bearing drying out ,or
like a baseball card in the spokes of a bike rim, but not that loud.
I recently put crossed drilled rotors and new hi-pro pads all
they way around. I was wondering if bearings go out on these in
the rear often. I do have 235,000 miles on it, and hope to go
another 235k.

yes,I always want the easy way out on repairs...I hoped for just a rock,but it seems to be a little bit more complicated. Now it seems the passenger side is
making the same kind of "ticking sound".

hers what I did.... "kids dont try this at home" I'm a trained professonal.
First I stopped by caseys and grabbed a 6 pack of my favorite beverage
"bud light" .2nd I pondered what It could be.3rd I burned one and then
it all came clear to me...I had a bad bearing in the rear so I replaced both
and the noise went away...4th I cleaned up the big mess I made, because
cleanliness is godliness...... so the problem is now fixed...thanks for replies!
