Default please help me out car wont drive straight

Thanks for viewing. I have a 95 integra and the it wont drive straight it dances and shifts from side to side slowly when holding the wheel straight its like its swereing slowly its pretty scary. I resently put brand new ground control, monroe shocks, jdm type r 114.4x4 suspension and wheels. The wheels have brandnew tires and were balanced but one of my wheels was badly bent so they didnt align that one and placed it in the back right side. I also put brand new tie rods and balljoints and aligned the car. Last when i put the wheels on the car the front wheels didnt clear the calipers and i went to autozone and bought some spacers. Some history on the car the car was mines and i sold it to a cousin and he first hit a curbe and mess a wheel up then he lost control in the snow and hit a curbe again and this time the wheel was completely done and the front left lower control arm had to be replaced because it was also bent. Now the car is mines again and the car needed the suspension redone and i have done everything to my knowledge but now its doing this. Thanks for reading and please if you have any helpfull information please post.

Dances when holding the wheel straight? Check the steering rack bushings / mounts, and tierods.
