squeaking sound from brakes

My wheels are making an annoying sound that:
  • Squeaks repeatedly in relation to my speed (faster speed = faster squeaking)
  • Stops when I apply the brake
  • Stops when I'm turning
The pads are new (replaced in January). Also, the car pulls slightly to the right when I brake hard. I don't believe the rotors are warped since the brakes don't shudder.

Diagnostic?

Look at the early detection tab on your shoes they might be worn more than you think if its a everyday driver. it might be hitting your rotor. I do alot of driving I go through brakes every 6 months or so.

the same noises are coming from my front right wheel. the squeak relational to speed, stops when i'm stopped, and the car seems to pull to the right a bit. My pads are at least 20k old, so I was thinking that might be it, but could there be another reason?
