yea, the bads get so wore down that either the brake pistons can rub or theres like this clip on the brake pad itself that can rub against the rotor, look at the rotor to see if theres any deep scratches or scrapes on it

but it kinda sounds like your wheel bearing

more info needed i think, what type of sound are you hearing ? woosh woosh is sometimes from the dust shield on the rotor that got bent and touches something, kevlo had a write up on that once, but he was running an upgraded brake setup i think

metal noise is anything, could be wheel bearing i think for that type of sound

describe the sound and the occasion you can replicat ethe sound at...

Jack the car up and hand turn the tires to see what is going on.
