I have a grinding noise coming from the right rear tire of my truck. Just recently finished my lift and put on new wheels and tires. I think it may be the wheel weights on the inside grinding on the brake drum. Did anyone have to modify their stock brake drums when changing wheel sizes. I am running 15x10's. It only grinds when turning left (weight is shifted to right rear)

Ugh unless they used stick on weights on the inside of the wheel I really doubt the wheel weight thought. Plus the weight shifting onto that wheel doesnt change the distance between drum and inside of the wheel.
What kinda a grinding noise we talking about. Like a dry bearing? Gravel in a motor bad?

metal on metal grinding that varies with the wheel speed. could it be possible if the little clip that holds the drum together broke/fell off that the actual drum could be touching when brakes are applied and turning?

Sounds to me like your drum shoes are at their wits end and the rivots are grinding.
