last december i had a little accident with my car. I was driving in the rain and lost control of my car when i was appling my brakes for a turn. I regained control just in time to straighten her up and hit a curb head on. I took about a 2-3 foot fall into a small field. Miraculously there was no real damage to the car acept a busted rim and some underbody damage.(it was those black plastic scrapers). No big deal. But then i found out that my alignment was way off. So i got a new rim and took my car to get aligned. The Alignment guy said that my driverside wheel was knocked back about 1-1 1/2 inches. I havent spent the money to get it fixed because my car drives fine with out it, so now i cant remember what it was that is bent/crooked. Any ideas or answers.

If you straightened it up, then wouldn't you have just gone straight down the road? Just kidding. You probably bent an axle or something. The only way to tell is to have a mechanic look at it.
