WTF?!?! Squeeking noise coming from drum...
Well as you all know that i recently bout some Konig rewinds...well something interesting besically happened after these rims were installed immediately after i drove off with them. Well basically my drivers side rear drum is squeaking as i am at very low speed (10 - 15 mph). At first i thought it ws my front rotors (but its not at all...i checked) its my rear drum. Real quick background...ALL my brakes are brand new as of last weekend (new drums,shoes,calipers,rotors and pads). And when i had the old meshies (the LE wheels) on i did NOT hear that squeeking sound at all...but as soon as these new rims were installed that drum began to squeek. Now again it is just at low speed (it does not get louder at all at high speed ..actually it goes awqay at high speed ) and it has NOT gotten worse..its just an annoying sound. What could it be? How could i fix it? Maybe just spray some Liquid wrench lol...i don't know lol. Anywyas any help would be appreciated. thanks guys.
***edit-the people that put on the new rims and tires did NOT mess with the brakes...they just monted the new wheels.***

but i think my problem is either the bearings, might need new ones, or the brakes.
im going to check it out this weekend, so ill get back to you later.

If re-torquing the lugs doesn't help, pull the wheel and drum. Make sure nothing has come loose inside the drum, and is rubbing.
I would say a rusty drum could cause this, but surely your new drums haven't had time to rust........

^^^actually it has been RAINING like crazy here lately (it just passed though finally) but i can see surface rust already forming on the new brembo drums. So i need to pull the wheel off and sand the drum down and paint them black so surface rust will stop coming back.
