Humming noise when turning wheel right?
So a few days ago it snowed and my Ralliart with crappy stock summer tires managed to slide the rear left wheel into a curb sideways (back end slid, and refused to correct). Ever since the car makes a slight humming noise once I hit like 45, and if I turn the wheel even slightly right at that speed or above it gets louder, almost sounds like a bad bearing or really loud crappy $10 tires if anyone has ever experienced either of those issues. It completely goes away if i turn the wheel to the left (even slightly, like to change lanes). I'm guessing I bent the wheel, but curious what else I may have damaged? I'm concerned it will be something really expensive. Any ideas?

I already have an appointment. I'm thinking of maybe rotating the tires before it goes though so they don't see the curbrash and deny the work... though it really is my fault I feel like if it didn't come with damn crap summer tires it wouldn't have happened so Mitsu should help me out with the 3 week old car.

Yeah, I agree. I took it in as is, told them the issue, and they are replacing the entire hub under warranty. They said once thats done they will take it around some more and see if it still makes the noise. Either way I'm thinking some new wheels are in my future.
