Something is dragging ... I think ...

Ok, when I drive down the road, it sounds like there is something dragging underneath the car, like a wire or something small, but then when I look under it -- there is nothing dragging, I have had my friends watch as I drive to see if maybe its only when Im driving ... they see nothing.

WTF is with it? LOL Its not affecting anything performance wise, I just wanted to know if anyone could give me an idea ... cause its really annoying.

What sort of sound is it making?
Is it a constant sound, I mean - does it come and go, or its always there?
Does it change with speed or RPMs?

Does it stop when you hit the brakes? Check the brake pads and make sure they're not getting too thin, and the warning thing is just starting to scrape.

could be warn out pads

could be wheel bearing

could be dust cover touching the roter (I would check this first since it would be a free fix)
