Wheel Bearing wear ?

When you turn hard left and the grinding sound happens does that mean your right wheel bearings are out ?...and vice versa ?

jack up your car and pull on the wheels like you are pretending to take them off but make sure the lugs are on. Check for play. this is the easiest way of diagnosing it.

I doubt it is your bearing, you would hear a hum while driving, check your pads

the metal grinding sound is pretty apparent when I'm turning hard right only...all my brake pads are new unless its a new feature of those lame hawk pads...
