Look at this...

Car was in a crash i bought it and had some1 rebuild it. Only thing is that the wheel is not centered on the right side but it is on the left.
What problems can this cause or will it be ok. I am on 18"

Broken control arm or wrecked bushing on control arm, broken ball joint(s). Lift up the front end and take pictures. To put it this way, it's like you are taking a picture of your car with the hood closed and asking what engine do I have, lol.

PICTURES! Then answers.

It really handles just fine really. Never had a problem.Only when i turn really sharp going fast then it grinds alittle cause my rims are so big. But my concern is if i am driving in the rain one day and its really bad will it affect handling and just make my car hydroplane.

RE: Look at this...

my friend's car does the same thing. He hit a curb and bent the frame. That's not really fixable.

Whoever rebuilt it for you shoudl take a look at it again.

I would make him look at it again but he is no longer in the states. How does your friend car handle?
