Sup guys, hit a pot hole big as f*ck. And i was wondering if you bent a rim or a control arm or tie rod, would you be able to feel it while driving?

( Like is it noticeable or you really have to pay attention?)

What is a sign that your wheel is out of balance. ( maybe i lost a weight on the rim )

Sorry guys just worried something f*cked up!!

Thanks!

 

Should be able to feel a bent suspension component under a certain speed or under certain engine load, if it's bent enough.

Take the car to a wheel/tire shop and have them spin the wheel to see if it's bent and re-balance it.

Wouldn't hurt to have the alignment checked after the wheel is spun too.

 

you would feel bent parts or rim, the parts would make it pull to one side,
bent rim would make it feel like you have a squirrel or other stuck to the tire and lump a bit.

haha I would take it to a shop and have them look it over for loose suspension parts, if not balance the tires and get an alignement. never hurts.

 

Just give it a good once over. Suspension should be tight in all directions. Check for a separated tires as well.

 

bump any more answers?

What speed should i be testing at?
