what size tires are you running? stock rims? aftermarket rims?

need a little more info

could be many things.
Are you using stock tires/wheels?

If all stock
- Could be that a piece of fender lining is hanging.

If aftermarket
- tire could be hitting some of your fender lining
- maybe your tires are rubbing part of your suspension
- maybe hitting fenders if you didn't get them rolled and you are lowered with aftermarket rims.
