Default Car makes weird sounds

when turning to the right but not to the left, the wheels i have on came from a 92-95 ls, or some other car around the same year, it sounds like metal rubing bad, idk if the caliper is rubing or the axle needs to be replaced, any help would be great, thanks in advance

have u changed the brakes ever? my rear started making a noise similar to what you described...changed my brakes, found out the rear right brake pad had a broken tab so it was kinda just floating around in the caliper...changed pads rotated rotors problem solved....
