bent rear wheel, can i just realign it
*updated with pics below
Hey Guys,
I'm at work now and just want to get some ideas for later. Basically i spun out in the rain and hit a curb with my left rear wheel and the wheel is now bent in. i put on the spare but it is all still bent, so it's not just the rim.
Can i just realign something in the rear suspension or is there always a part that will have to be replaced?
If anyone can point me in the right direction i would appreciate it. just want to get a game plan together for when i get done work.
Thanks HT!

You can only adjust it so much with an alignment, you need to replace whatever is bent. When I get cars at work that have been in accidents they never align right unless everything that was bent has been replaced.
