Hit The Curb So Hard I Broke The Concrete
I smacked a curb hard as hell while trying to stay out of the way of a wild pickup driver and his trailer turning inside of me... it was a two lane turn to the left... Anyways I know the rim is done, toast, holla! But I wanted to know if there is a way to adjust alignment in the back, it's my rear left wheel... it's looks as if it's getting ready to turn to the right... it not off my much, maybe half an inch or so, but it is visible... any clue to what's wrong? I'm not trying to pay Mitsubishi $85 just to tell me it's something stupid... any help or ideas would be greatly appreciated... thank you in advance!

I'm guessing you have a control arm bent. They have crumple zones in them that are designed to fold on impacts like that. It saves the more expensive stuff.
But if its bent out wards a little I would say you may have a tie rod bent to perhaps. I've haven't looked under an evo but that would be my guess.
Good luck dude. If it is those things you looking at almost $1000.
