    It sounds like you really need to get your vehicle inspected soon as possible. It sounds like the brake linings may be worn and at this stage hopefully the brake discs (or possibly drums have not been damaged). I have seen cracked steel wheels cause a creaking sound but these are all safety issues and are safest to get checked out.
