Two80z4me Posted May 2, 2010 Share Posted May 2, 2010 I'm not entirely sure if that was english I just read. Welcome to Hybridz, worse than your english teachers. Try using the search function on the top right, and when posting a topic be VERY specific on the problem, you didnt explain what kind of sound, it could be brakes, it could be half shafts.

rx8ss Posted May 2, 2010 Share Posted May 2, 2010 If it is bent, it is wrong. Wheel or control arm/strut that is bent needs replaced. As said before search the suspension area. More info than you need, and lots of good info there for the taking. Good luck. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
19762802+2 Posted May 2, 2010 Share Posted May 2, 2010 take some pictures of what happened, Take some with the wheel on then take some with the wheel off and of underneath the car. If your rear wheel is bent inwards like you say it is there might be some suspension damage or worse frame damage. You may be lucky and the tire may just be bent, but I have a feeling its most likely your frame and suspension. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
