Drivers tend to take left turns harder than right turns.
I think your tires and rims specs are not proper for the car.
For 17" and 225 width, the tire should be 225/45/17.
17" x 7" rim is ideally a +35 offset.
17" x 8" rim is ideally a +30 offset.

Also, it is not uncommon for one side to rub while the other side is okay. Don't be freaked out about that too much. Cars aren't really symmetrical, you don't sit in the middle, alignments can make one side more likely to rub than the other side, etc.
