Default big problem!!!!I NEED HELP

my 1997 civic EX 5spd was just lowerd with skunk2 lowering springs, when it was lowred i noticed that the front right tire was closer to the wheel well, it is hard to explain but i will try.........the tire is closer to the part of the wheel well that if you look at the front right whell with your right hand toward the front of the car the wheel is further toward the back of the car then the other tire.

i also noticed this b4 the drop so can some one tell me what the problem is???

You have a bent suspension piece, probably the radius rod. Has the car ever been wrecked or curbed?
