Default Wheel Problem

So everytime I turn the steering wheel to the right, it makes a sound like the tire is rubbing on something, possibly the fenderwall. Is this common? Its pretty loud the noise and any help would be gladly appreciated.

first one nice paiting man how much you spend on that?
soo about your noise in front drive live could have some reasons
turn the stering wheel to the maximum possition to the right and left and take a look for both ways is the tire touch the fender cover
if this is fine you should check the mobile parts that moves with the wheel
take inside your car someone and when he turns the wheel take a look at the drive line
like I told you ,if it dosen't touch the fender cover ,you may have to change some parts (mostly one is a kind of "mobile head-near the wheel )
but could be something else ,
soo turn your wheels to the right and left and try to locate the noise

The tires are probably just rubbing. It's not top big of a deal if it only happens when you cut it really far. Nothing you can really avoid without getting smaller rims or lower profile tires.

Just a little rubbing... which is never bad Mine does it as well. Seems like our cars are both equally retarded because I have the same issue getting out of park.
