Noise from right rear please help!!!!

I swapped out my snow rims and tires back to stock now my right rear is making a weird squeak when I brake. I know that the Brembos squeak but its not that kind of a squeak. Its more like a squeak only on a certain part of the rotor (if that makes sense) I took it to ntb this morning and they said I had glazing on my rotors from them overheating and thats what was doing it but I didnt have this problem with the snow rims and tires on. Please help just to give me piece of mind.

Make sure the shield on the back side of the rotor isn't rubbing against it.

You know I thought of that while I was driving, but why would that happen just from swapping the rims? I am baffeld.

Yeah, this is hard to diagnose without being able to hear it. It could be the dust shield rubbing, a glazed rotor, brake pad wear indicator, stuck caliper, hanging e-brake cable, debris wedged in there somewhere, wheel bearing. Pretty good list to go through. Check the easy stuff first obviously, good luck!

Thanks man first off. I dont know dude I am completely clueless as to what it is I just dont understand why this would just start happening right when I change my rims. Unless since I rotated them and now have the 20 weights in the fron and the 10s in the back but I cant see that being a problem.
