So I was in the process of buying new tires and decided to go out today to go tire shopping. It snowed a little bit and to my surprise I plowed right into a curb. My right front wheel hit with minimal damage to the wheel itself. The tire stayed inflated I just have a huge chunk taken out of the side of it. The biggest problem is now the wheel is set about 2 inches back in the wheel well and rubs when I turn. The steering immediately lost all resistance and is all crooked. What do you think I'm going to need to get my car fixed?

Id say control arms, inner and outer tie rods and maybe a new strut.

jack up the car and look at the damage done. In no time you'll see exactly what you'll need to replace.

Ya, it just snowed today so I can't really jack it up. Just was looking for a ballpark at the damage.

I forgot to see what region your in, the snow could make it a little more of a trouble some process.

if it damaged everything it would be

Control arm
Inner/outter tie rod
spindle/hub bearings
bent strut
sway bar end links.
bent rim

I would assume all of the above are damaged, and get pricing for all. And when you finally get a chance to jack up the car, and take a look, you'll see for sure what needs to be replaced and what doesnt. But up in MA, dont know if there will be a day that the snow would be all melted and the ground dry for you to check things out. Might have to take it to a shop for an estimate (worse comes to worse)
