please help .... advice
 I was driving home from work (in my camry) when another driver entered an intersection with me still in it to avoid an accident i swirved and mounted the curb. this caused my front left tyre to blow out... I managed to change the tyre fine (woohoo) but now the car slightly shakes (in the steering) and veers to the left. could this mean i need a wheel balance or alignment, or is it likely to be more serious. I am taking it to a mechania on monday to look at and can't afford to be 'ripped off'Please share your thoughts.... much appreciated |

Re: please help .... advice
With the vehicle being front wheel drive major damage could have been done if it was a big curb. If it was a small or normal curb prolly just needs tire replaced, good rotate and balance and an alignment.

Probably bent the wheel at the least.
