Rubbing Sound on left turns only?

I recently noticed as I pulled into the local 7-11 that my 98 2.5 5 speed was making scraping noise on left turns as slow speeds. it doesn't seem to happen all the time, only occasionally. any ideas? I believe it's coming from the rear of the car. Also it seems more likely to happen after "spirited" driving. I was thinking maybe rear wheel bearing????

actually now that you mention it, I did go to 18 inch wheels recently
Are they the proper offset? or did you put Carrera wheels on a Boxster? ;)

some out and out guesses --

1) Perhaps the e-brake is rubbing after spirited driving. If you engage it it sometimes makes a rubbing noise.

2) a sticky caliper.

3) improper rims

Again all out and out guesses
