Default rear brake screeeeeeech! please help

hey everyone my 96 formula bird has a rear brake screech. i have put new rear rotrs, pads and i cleaned the hubs really good with a grinder. And it still make the god awful noise. but the wierd thing is it is only when i turn left or right wether im on the brakes or not. but going straight if i hit the brakes not a sound comes out of them. i work on cars and i cant figure it out for the life of me. Someone give me some kind of idea. Please help and thanks in advance.
