Funny noise from the rear

I'm getting this strange noise when braking-to-a-stop. It sounds like it's coming from the rear. I'm gonna take the car in later this week, but if you guys have experienced this before, let me know. YouTube: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kD0lk0BxcF8

I think you just need new pads I'm probably wrong though

I think you just need to do some adjustment on the parking brake! By the way, your rims look very nice! What is it??

I fiddled with the e-brake but still no luck. We'll see what the dealer says tomorrow. Thanks, the wheels are 360 Forged Spec|5ive

Got the car back...they say its a problem with the brake pads. They're not bad, but they're just making noise. I might get some low-dust ones or something and have my independent mechanic put them on. Any recommendations?
