HELP: suspension or coil over failure?
 
So today I was driving on the road and I hit a part of the road that it had a small ditch in it. I was going about 40mph and I felt a BUMP (more like a "dunk" sound), since then, whenever I hit like a small bump or something. Now the drive feels like I'm driving on a flat tire; it drives and all but I can feel a little wobble and whatnot. At least it's only the right side that feels that way but, what do you think guys? Do you think I broke the suspension or coil over? I'm going to take a look tomorrow, but I was wondering what you guys think. THANKS

probably bent something or the tires may need to be rebalanced

That might be right, I have a spare tire so I'll give it a try. While I'm changing the tire, I could check around and see what's wrong. Thanks!

It's possible you hit the ditch hard enough to bend the wheel a bit. This will cause you wheel to be unbalanced and it'll wobble/vibrate. This would happen more so when moving between certain speeds(say 40mph-70mph). If you can a noise or wobble feel only at certain instances like when going over a bump, then something else could have knocked loose or broke.

I'll finally have time to find out tomorrow, but I do get a weird bump or noise on certain instances such as bumpy road. I really hope it's nothing major, I have so much to fix :(
