Default Grinding in passanger side wheel well.

When i accelerate or let off the gas I here a grinding noise from my passenger side wheel well. I have no clue what it is sounds like my wheel rubbing against the wheel well wall. I have a 90 Honda crx with a D16Z6 swap.

we need some additional information to help you out like
-what speeds do you hear the grinding sound at?
-when did it start (slowly or all of a sudden)?
-have you jacked it up and looked at it yet?

I would definitly jack it up and inspect it could be a number of things but you need to narrow it down a bit. This could be a mechanical problem with that sides suspension, a brake problem, dust sheild, tranny, and the list goes on and on. Inspect rule out possabilitys and report back.
