Default cant figure out noise

im getting a noise when i turn right...sounds like my tire is rubbing (255/16's)
i cant seem the find any spot my tire is rubbing. today i went to replace my wheel bearings..and they was fine.no play..no noise...spun freely...plenty of good grease. the rear seemed fine also.not leaking any fluids...not play (was told to lift up on wheel?) im aggrevated beyond belief...every time i get something fixed...something else comes up (it is over 20 yrs old)

my car
89 gt
t5
bbk fenderwell intake,70mm maf,70mmtb, edelbrock equal length headers,bbk x-pipe,flow master 40's, 3.73 rear gears (tracloc)

another note- everyone once and awhile i get the noise while driving straight..sometimes i goes a 20 miles or so before any noise...but its an every day noise.

please help...

It sounds like a bad wheel bearing to me. Specifically your left one (it gets more stress when turning right). There are tons of video's on YouTube about how to check a wheel bearing. Any play is too much play. Good luck...
