Default 240 GLT- wheel hop/grumble

Being new to 240 ownership, I have a lot of questions...
When I turn hard lock I get what I can only describe as what feels like wheel hop or like the tyre is being pushed or pulled over the ground sideways perpendicular to the wheel rim. Is this normal for 240s? They do seem to have a more extreme lock than cars I've owned before. I've had the tracking set today and it's still about the same.

Also the left front feels very grumbly and lumpy on tight right turns but behaves normally on left turns. I suspect wheel bearings and have ordered a set but would welcome the collectives opinion.

I have checked all the bushes and they seem pretty good.

Many thanks.
