serious problem...
alright so here goes... i hit a bad pothole one night and cracked a rim (18 with 35 series rubber) and bent the LCA up front... replaced LCA and the wheel still isnt centered in the wheel well, and there is a wicked popping/clunking sound when i turn. do you guys think it might be the strut, or maybe the drive axle??? thanks alot guys!!
My SL65 rim, because a rim is all I can afford

check your CV's.... Go into an empty flat parking lot, turn the steerin wheel all the way to the right and back up, then do it with the wheel all the way to the left, if you hear clicking, have a shop check your CV joints.
It also sounds like you bent a control arm or something, I would reccomend going to place that can check all that with an alignment.

i took the car to an alignment shop, and had a 4 wheel alignment done. now either they really screwed me (because they did the alignment) and didnt tell me that somthing is wrong, or they didnt see anything. anyways, the steering wheel is straight now, however the car still pulls very bad, both ways. the clunking noise is getting much worse... its not a clicking noise like a typical worn cv joint, it is a clunk as if somthing is bent, however i dont know what!! im afraid to take it to honda, for fear of being *** raped with no vasoline, however i dont want the car to just break one day and leave me stranded. this suuuuuucks,

axles wont effect where the tire sits in relationship to the wheel well. Post up the specs that they set the alignment to for starters
