then it probably is a suspension problem. Jack it up, put some long lumber under the axle and take off the tire (I don't trust jackstands, really easy to tip and have the car roll back off the jackstands and crush you and your new brakes. I put wide, long and thick wood to keep it up. the car will have to slide 3 feet back/forward off the wood to fall off, and slide past the brake discs to fall off left/right). Once you have the tire off, check all the suspension parts, anything unusual that could rub against the tire or wheel well while turning right.
