try braking and c if the prob goes away, if so grind the leading edge of ur brake pads...resolved prob in my case.

Other things cud b the bearings, try turning the wheel left and right when it squeaks and c if it makes a diff.

i once had the same problem caused by quick fit fitting cable ties to my wheel trims that were touching the brake discs... they joined 2 together and so the join on the inside rubbed....
