So I got brand new brake pads, and disks a few weeks ago and ever since my rear passenger side is squeaking as I drive. It's not just when I apply the breaks, I hear it with every rotation of the wheel. I can't tell if it's getting worse or if I'm just getting more annoyed at it. I'm just looking for suggestions on what it might be before I take the whole thing apart.

Gotta take it apart and look at it... Could be that a clip is rubbing or something like that, after I did my brakes I had a funny noise also turned out to be I never removed the wire I used to hang my calipers after I was done with the last one.

First thing I would check is the brake dust shields. Use your fingers (if you're strong enough hehe) or a screw driver to pry the shield away from your rotors. Either the shield itself could have minimal clearance and is rubbing, or a rock or something could be between the rotor and shield. Either way see if that helps. Otherwise you might need to take the brakes apart and re-check.

did you use the anti squeal stuff?

Where did you buy the rotors? Cheap ones may have excessive runout.

You can also get runout from burrs or not cleaning the mounting surfaces.

I recently had a sticky caliper I mistook for a squeaky wheel bearing. I would slide the rubber sheath that shields the pins which align the caliper's two halves back and forth after adding some 707 grease to the shafts. I hear a dab or two on the backs of the pads prior to install can help prevent squealing as well. gl
