Brake Noise with Snow Tires on Viggen

I just put snow tires (Brigestone Blizzaks LM-22s) with new alloy wheels (16in Mille Miglias)on my Viggen. Since then I have noticed that if I am driving around 80mph and brake slightly hard, as the speed drops, in the 50-60mph range a fairly loud drone comes from the brake area as I am braking.
I bought my wheels and tires from Tirerack and they checked the brake template for the Viggen yesterday with the wheels and the clearances were fine.
I have set up an appointment with the dealer next week to get this checked out.
Has anyone else had any similar experiences or are there any possible explanations tied to the new wheels and tires?
Regards,
Vivek
