Default grinding in brakes when turning right...2003 trailblazer

Hello everyone new member here looking to pick someone's brain for more knowledge than I have. I've replaced ball joints tie rods wheel bearing hub and brakes and rotors. When I make a right handed turn there is a grinding noise coming from front passenger tire sharper the turn louder the grind. I previously replaced the front rotors and brakes but just on the passenger side started to get 3 grooves in the rotor and the pad had 3 lines that were raised. I hadn't replaced the wheel bearing hub when I first replaced the rotors and pads so I took them back am got new ones thinking it was the hub and just needed new rotor and pads again but it still does it also putting a lot of brake dust on the rims. I don't know what to do but don't want to keep spending money guessing. If anyone has any ideas or has dealt with this before and knows what it is I would really appreciate it.

if the noise is a tinny scraping sound; inspect the backing plate for contact with the rotor.
