Again, this is not a bearing going bad sound, rather a scraping sound.
Please give me some ideas! One guess I have is could it be the rotor slightly larger OD? I didn't actually look to see if there are any scraping marks on the OD part of the rotor.

Thanks.
I once had after market rotors which were a little too thick. The scraping sound was more prominent when the brakes warmed up and on reflection happened more pronouncedly on cornering. Putting them on a lathe fixed the issue.
