Default Strange squeaking noise

Hey everyone got a question...

I recently got new wheels (16x8 with 4.25 BS) and new tires (285/75R16 BFG MT KM2). After having them installed i began to notice a squeaking noise possibly coming from the front driver side wheel. When I looked underneath i did not notice and rubbing or grinding and i also ensured that everything was properly tightened. I did have a BB installed but that was AFTER the sound had already started.

Anyone have any idea as what could be causing this squeaking sound?

Any help is greatly appreciated

your wheels may be rubbing on your brake calipers. You might want to look into that.
