Check to make sure your brake pads are still good and not gringing on the rotor. If your brakes are good might be a wheel bearing. Check the bearing by putting one hand on the wheel at 12 oclock and the other at 6. Than start shaking the wheel to see if it has any play. Should feel completely solid.
