If you haven't had your rotors turned, you can get a ridge on the outer edge and a worn pad may rub on it a little bit because it sticks out further than the rest of the rotor.

Could also be one of the sliders is sticking and doesn't let the caliper move in and out freely.

I was listening closely today, it's def my brake pads, no problem since I have a box in the garage. I would hear the rubbing noise and as soon as I would brake it would stop.

Well I replaced the front brake pads, and it's still doing it. So maybee ill chek the rear, the pads are still good in the back, im thinking maybee the rotors, they are old, busted n rusty.

How loud is the rubbing sound? A bearing sounds kind of like a clicking sound or a marble rolling on a kitchen table. Try going like 20PH and very slowly press down the break. See if it is something like a warped rotor. Can you be more specific on the sound compared to something else

It's not the bearings. Stick your tongue on the roof of your mouth and blow in bursts. tss sss sss sss. Im thinking it's warped rotors and they rub on the pads.
