Default Troubleeee, can anyone help???

hey guys,
ever since i got my car, every time i use the paddle shift and give it some power after a while i get this smell coming from the back that smells like burning rubber(isn't the tires). its coming from the passenger rear wheel spot. anyone has/had this issue before?

yesterday i get on the highway, i pull it a bit to 75 and this ticking noise comes from the front tires(i believe its the drivers side) while im cruising at 75, it ticks three times, stops for 2 seconds, ticks three times and so on and then the smell comes in.

Please help!

It's unburned fuel. Change climate to recirculation mode may help reducing the sulfur smell.

why is the smell only coming from the passenger rear side though? wouldn't it be coming from both sides?
