Default Scrubbing noise when I get on it!

Like it says, got a 2002 m6 SS with BMR T/A and Hot Part LCAs, when I jump on it I get this scrubbing type of noise coming from the driver's side rear of the car. Don't see any evidence of tires scraping the wheel well, in fact they are the stock 17 by 9 275 mm tires, stock springs and shocks, and 22,000 miles on the car. Any ideas?

Thanks.

It's hard to describe but I only get it when I launch and then its momentary and only from the driver's rear. More of a dull noise than a high pitch, sounds like something rubbing.

Try putting like chalk around the wheel well or something, then get on it and see if any got rubbed off.

While that could be the case, I would imagine it would be sounding different than what he said.
