Default Going bigger wheels, BRAKES????

Will putting bigger wheels cause some sort of grinding noise when braking??
i had the stock 18X8" front wheels and replaced it with G games19X 9.5 front 22 offset weight is probably the same as stock or lighter. Im getting grinding noise when i start to slow down and apply the brakes dont know whats causing it ,any idea???

The car is screaming for a BBK. No, I have no idea, make sure that nothing happened to the brakes when installing the wheels.

if ur breaks are fine and u installed the rims right, with the lil purple circles i included. then its prolly ur fender rubbing the tire. u definetely need to roll ur fenders if ur lowered.
