Slid into a curb
Got stuck driving the V in some snow last week and finally got around to looking at it after I slid into a curb from hitting some black ice. Thankfully I was going slow.
Anyway, it looks like the rear passenger wheel is angled inward on the bottom and maybe the front passenger tie rod is bent, but it is hard to tell without getting the car up. The steering wheel is definitely cocked to 10:30 while driving straight. My main concern is the rear. This is my first IRS vehicle...what could cause that?

sounds like it bent the lower control arm. I had a similar incident a few weeks ago, hit hard enough it actually bent my axle though and busted my wheel and pushed my rear end over about 2". sucks

Seems that way and it definitely sucks. Not too happy about it. I think the axle is fine, no abnormal noises while driving its just the wheel is visually out of place.
