Default Hit a pothole and Now I have this problem, Help!

auto integra with 1.25" drop (aftermark springs and shocks). My Drivers side front wheel hit a pothole the other night and I felt the impact. Pull aside and check, and there was no problem. The next day I didn't noticed any air loss therefore the tired didn't pop. Now this is the problem. Whenever I reverse, and I turn my steering wheel all the way, I hear a rubbing/squeaking sound. It doesn't happen all the time, just sometimes. It doesn't happen when I drive forward or turn. Only happens during reverse. Could it be a joint or/axel damage? bent something?

thanks

Sounds like the tire rubs when turned all the way in reverse. Since you lowered the car this is all i can really think of. Check your tire clearance. I would still check the cv boots and your axles. Still sounds to be your tire rubbing.

Tire has enough clearance. Sound is more like metal rubbing/squeaking. Not rubber. and today I also noticed that when i'm driving forward in the highway, I also hear squeaks(sounds like joints?), not as pronounced as in reverse but it's there.. sounds more like squeakin+whistling. axles? joints?cv?caliper damages? anyone? ASLO, my steering wheel tends to steer to the LEFT a little if I let go of it during driving.

go to your Tire place and get the car realigned and have it checked out

dont you guys think the first thing that can be done is to get it home, take the wheel off, and just visually inspect the suspension hardware to see if it has any visible damage to it ? check for bends, etc then look at the fender liners and see where it rubs
