Default Brake problems

Well I'm starting to have grinding sounds from my front brakes when they get wet. I've checked the pads and they are at 80% the rotors were just turned so can't be them. What could it be. It only does this when it's wet and if I'm braking while turning. I checked the hubs and they feel fine so now I'm stumped.

It doesn't have abs. And the front is disk not drums. I'm gonna change the pads in the morning and see if that helps. This is really starting to bug me.

I have a feeling it may be the rotors. I know you mentioned the rotors... But If ur new pads don't solve it I think you need to throw new rotors on... Good luck
