Default Weird Noises

i have a 97 ex coupe that is basically a 99-00 Si minus that em1 chassis code, my problem is that the car has been sitting for about 2-3 months and when i finally finished everything about 2 hours ago i went to test drive and the car is stopping on its own, all the rust on the disc has worn off but still the stop when i am not accellerating and there is a horrible roaring noise coming from the front and rear of the car, possible seized caliper or wheel bearing?????? any help would be most appreciated - thanks

also the car runs and drives down the road smooth so i dont think it could be a tire issue

jack it up without the ebrake on and spin each wheel until you hear the noise at least youll get an idea where its coming from

Yeah, it definately sounds like a seized caliper. Try greasing the pistons.

the HX wheels were actually hitting the caliper bracket causing the noise, but thanks to all that replied, you are appreciated
