stock tires/wheels rubbing at or close to steering lock

I'm hearing a rubbing noise when I make tight radius turns in both directions. Sounds like the tire is rubbing something. My car is 100% bone stock. '13 335 xdrive w msport. The wheels are the factory 19s on original tires. I have VSS and active suspension. I do not recall hearing this noise before. Any thoughts/ideas?

Probably the xDrive. Either a CV joint or your transfer case. Or you could just have something stuck in the suspension/wheel well like a branch. You should definitely look into it or take it in.
