Unhappy Draging sound coming from front right wheel?

I have a draging sound coming from passenger front wheel well. When I pull the steering wheel to the left it sounds worse. Its not like super loud but I can tell something is screwed. Maybe my cv joint or hell maybe even my brakepad, I have been kind of heavy on them. I dont think my rim is bent but, it could be,I have axis 7mods 18". My car is modded-cia,headers, exhuast,psi fi kit- do you think the dealership would fix it under warranty if it is bad rotors or brakes. any and all help would be great.

I had a rub sound when I would turn right. It turned out to be the factory side sill was bending out and would rub the tire. I would chck and see if anyhting is hitting the tire before you look for anyhting more serious. It could just be a fastner missing from the splash gaurd in the wheel well.

noise could be coming from my magna flow catback. I notice when coasting at 30mph and turning left with clutch in I hear no sound but, when I rev motor while turning left sound is loud as hell. I thought it was more of a draging sound but could possibly be a vibration of sort. I hope its a problem with the position of my exhuast. Maybe its touching my underboby somewhere.

it was my WR engine damper. apparently I'll have to make some kind of thick, hard, rubber gasket or spacer to put between the damper kit and my car to stop the vibration. thanks for the replys'

I had that same problem from my damper. Surprised I wasn't the only one. It started when the mechanics put my motor back in my car and then they put my damper in wrong. They said it was from the motor swaying back and forth and that they had to tighted the brackets down. No problems so far.
