Default i need help fast

i have a 1991 honda accord LX, and i live in minnesota. eh!! well we had rain a couple of weeks ago and it turned into ice. i tried to stop and i went through a stop sign and hit a snow bank going about 25-30 and it was like hitting a brick wall. i was scared and noticed that my stering wheel had like a wiggle to it. but you dont notice it until you are on the freeway. could this be a tie-rod that i bent or a bent rim. IDK what is up but it feels like im going to die when i drive it on the freway. help please.

and also when i step on the brake on the freeway, my pedal is pulsating realy bad too.

Bent rim from the accident
Warped rotor(s) from sheer coincidence.

I'd still have it looked at, There may be bent conponents which aren't making themselves apparent.

ive had cars that did that (shaking but never notice it until going freeway speeds, and it drove me crazy.)

i never found out what it was causing it.

good luck with it man. and watch out for that ice.

considering what i have experienced, if it is 40° outside and raining, i prepare for ice.
