Question Rear wheels, rattle noise...?

Pretty stoked with my new ride, however I keep hearing a rattle on my rear wheels. Not sure what it is but I can hear it most when I am going over lane seperation reflector dots. It kind of sounds like a loose emblem but I am just not sure. I purchased the sport package along with the car and am wondering iof this may have something to do with it

I took mine in for a metallic rattle/squeak from the rear wheel wells whenever I go over those road dividing reflectors and it turned out to be the parking brake cable. They didn't explain why it needed adjusting and I don't know how it could have loosened since I seldom use it.

I have a 350 Sport and was experiencing the same problem. Took it back again, and they adjusted the parking brake assembly and that seemed to work.
