Default Weird Suspension noise??

My tie rod and ball joints were bad in my car so i took it to a shop to replace it . When I got my car back I drove it and now it makes a weird rubbing noise?? What could it be. THe sound comes from my front driver side wheel. Thx in advance

Make sure your plastic fenderwell shroud isn't hanging out and dragging on your tire. Look for a shiny spot on the shroud.

I have the factory 16 inch wheels with tires . 10 spoke snowflake design . How do I check if its my wheel bearing? I doubt it my wheel bearing because it sounds like its coming from a higher part of the car like underneath my driver side front fender

You know that there is a wheel that sits under that fender, right? Could also be some bushings that are worn.

does it make the rubbing noise when you turn in either direction or just one direction? If so which direction?
