Default hit a curb with my wheel

Well I was taking a turn I always did, gave it a little to much gas and hit a curb with my wheel. The fender is fine no body panels were touched but the wheel is a bit scuffed up, I drove the car and it still felt like normal, did some hard breaking and didnt feel any vibrations or anything coming from rear rotors.

Would there be any signs by driving the car that I had hurt something?

Where should I go to get this checked out?


Thanks

most likely the only thing you will need is an alignment.

I looked at all my suspension stuff beside the wheel and nothing looks out of place. What are some symptoms that I would be able to feel / notice when driving the car if I had caused serious damage?

Also how much will a wheel aligntment cost me?

I just had a accident as well, but mine was a lot worse. Either way, I took my car to my local honda, and the alignment was $100. I had 2 control arms bent, and the wheel just didn't line up. It was off to the right. I'd get an alignment just in case, pay the $100, so you don't have to spend even more for tires later on.

you hit a curb giving the car gas? so did you spin out or just drift and hit it?
