Hey, I was driving today and i realized that my wheels or making a scraping noise as I drive, ESPECIALLY when i turn to the right. I've noticed it before but it stopped. Wha could it be? brake pads? brake rotors? Someone please help. :)

I bought it used but as far as I know it wasn't dropped. It does have TRD rims but i think the owner before me bought the TRD package deal.

it sounds like metal scraping thought...oh well, i'll have that checked out. Was the cut visible? Would I be able to see it if I poked around the wheel well?
