Help strange noise !

I recently got new wheels and the next morning as I was pulling it out the front left wheel (sitting on driver) was making this really loud scary noise and it's driving me nuts have no idea what it is . It does it as I press on the brake slowly. If anybody has any idea that would be great .
Help me out ! I will try to post video showing what it is

That is Orca calling from the Pacific!

Sounds like the brake pads rubbing a bit when you have the brake on lightly. It should go away after you drive and brake the car a few cycles. Moisture can cause this, did you wash the car recently?

Remind me of when the Top Gear guys wired the electrical from the break pedal to the horn so that it honked every time you applied the brakes.

To be honest it really sounds like a horn. You've got a 2014, same as mine, so you've got the roller skates on your brakes. I wonder if perhaps they're rubbing against something, perhaps even the RIM itself, as you move backwards and forwards.

Yes it's when I go forward and back but calipers are really far from the rim so I can't be that . It goes away after a while sometimes

Take the wheel off and check the back side of it for rub marks . Odds are it may be hitting your Strut or some part of your suspension . If it wasn't making that noise before you put the wheels on you know that the new wheels are the cause. Do the new wheels have the correct offset . Did you do any other work on the car besides the wheels ? Check it .

YEs the offset of the wheels have to be correct with correct MM of clearance made right, if you have say two wheels one offset and two a different offset and they say screw it up and put the rear on the front ......

for instance my wheels :

20 mm front and 30mm rear. For those specific wheels......
