reach behind the rotor/wheel and bend back the dust shield (the metal pizza-pan looking thing just inside of the rotor). It probably got bent somehow (snow?) and is scraping the back of the rotor. common problem.

Your brakes are finito, the brake pads have like a little metal thing sticking out so you can hear it rub before u start grinding upto your calipers. So maybe u need new brake pads.
