Default new rotors and pads in and one rotor seems to rub against the

inside of the driver's side caliper. It happens when I turn the wheel all the way to the right. The side of the visible side of the rotor is the side getting scraped. My guess is that I might have some rust on the hub making the rotor not seat as close to the hub as it should. So I can try some PB blaster and a metal bristle brush and try to clean up the hub a little bit. Any other ideas? The other side is fine and this wasn't happening with the very worn rotors I removed to put these new ones on.

Default hmmmm....not sure if this makes sense

but I think maybe I didn't push the pistons all in the same and maybe that's why I'm having my problems.
