High Speed Rubbing Sound

So my friend has a gd3. When he's going over 30 mph and turning left..just a gradual left turn going down the road or on the freeway..he hears a rubbing sound coming from his front left tire. He has stock wheels and stock suspension and it only happens at higher speeds. Anyone have a clue of what it could be?? Thanks in advance

Does the sound go away if he turns back right? Sounds like a wheel bearing to me.

The fender liner is cool I checked that. The sound is not present when he turns right only left. So yes, it disappears when he finishes the left turn and goes straight again

Sounds like a text book wheel bearing. GL
