Default Metal on Metal sound when making a U-turn

When I make a LEFT U-Turn I hear this metal on metal sound coming from the front right side. It's not a sharp squeel.

Sounds similiar to the sound I had on my left rear brakes when my caliper ceased and the indicator from the brake was rubbing on the rotor. I checked the brake pads and they seem fine. Any ideas?

I currently have some road noise from that side which I first thought was the bearing but the mechanic said it's most likely uneven treading on the tires as they didn't notice/hear anything odd when they put it on the lift.

on your brakes you have a backing plate. that plate could be rubbing against something in that area, try bending it out of the way cuz ive had that sound before and that all it was

My car did that.
Ended up my pads were done and rubbing up against my rotors, only only happened when I made sharp turns.

Does it sound like a bag of tin cans rattling?

I thought it was my splash guard, but I was wrong.
