Hey so I noticed a slight scraping sound coming from what sounded like my wheels. No clue what it is. Just had the brakes done recently so I'm assuming its not them but I could be wrong. Really dont know how to describe it. Its just a noise, with no performance problems or lights. Any ideas would be greatly appreciated.

Did some searches and found that it could be a sign of a tranny issue....?

If it sounds like a tin can scraping on the pavement then it's probably your brake rotors dust cover that's bent in a little and rubbing on something. Happened to me on one wheel when I was installing the
fronts of my tein setup. It only happened when I made right hand turns though, so you may not be having the same issue.

Simple fix: just straighten out the rotor dust cover (take off wheel of course)

Yea thats exactly how it sounds. Thanks for the input, I'll check it out

Yup, had the same issue. Be kinda gentle though, you can bend it so that the bottom pushes against the rotor by applying too much force on the top.

I have this sound too. I had assumed it was my tranny but i'll check this out.
Thanks
