oh FFS, hit a pole.

i'm a ******* idiot.

i slid out in the rain, popped my tire partially off my rim, and fucked my fender up, a week after it was painted.

I was able to fix the tire and rim, and i will have to get the fender fixed.

But now, my car still tracks straight, but straight means the wheel is a bunch to the right, which it never was before.

What happened? did i jump some teeth on the steering rack?

Any easy solutions? or leave it up to the pros?

Probably skipped a few teeth if it's still going straight. I'd still however get all your suspension checked on that side, you never know if somethings out of alignment. Sucks to hear though

You could have bent something as well, probably a good idea to get it checked.
