What could be wrong

I had to put my car in the shop today. No not for an engineswap or header. I was in a hurry and cut out of a parking spot to soon and hit my tire on a garage pole. I am stupid. Luckely No body damage. It still drives straight but if I turn sharp to the left I rub hard and over 50 mph It vibrates like hell. But at 75-85 smooth then ofter that BAD vibrations. i was testing. the roads were clear.

The mechanic says it isn't allignment becuase I still drive straight even though my steering wheel is of 15 degrees. He says I may have bent something.

Anyone have any bright ideas before I have to go back and get my car.

[IMG]i/expressions/face-icon-small-frown.gif[/IMG] that sucks I use to have a 91 integra full decked out i took a turn fast with a protruding manhole hit it too hard and too fast and bent my lower control arm sorry to say you probably bent something. cuz after my steering wheel was pointing way left 12:00 was now at 3:00 but it drove straight but when i raced no traction. My right tire sat an inch and half closer to the passenger door. i say warranty if you still have it just stand there and scratch your head.
