Cool Scrapping sound?

Hey all, its been a while.. been super busy this summer with my new career and such.. So heres the scoop, since i travel alot i've had to replace the Mercedes as my DD and go with something that can keep up with highway speeds.And also something less on repairs... So naturally i went with a ricer.. Well actully and Infiniti.. Anywho... so missing the benz the otherday i decided to go for a drive, i start to here this scrapping noise comming from the front tire. It comes and it goes but is usually pretty much always there. sometimes louder than others... Now remembering back a few weeks ago, i did driver her threw a rain storm and she handled really well. So... im not sure if water got into the barrings? the wheel barrings need to be repacked?? it sounds kind of like when you have bad brake pads and are pressing down on the brakes and they make that scrapping noise, only there is no difference in sound whether i hit the brakes or not. Any suggestions on what it could be?
