s-techs, z-shocks, hotckis sways with stiff -rear and medium - front = oversteer in any case, take 10mph corner too fast OVERsteer!, lift off at high rpm OVERSTEER!, I dont even talk about punching it in the middle of the turn. This is all after tremendous amount of grip though.

Too me it looks like the outer tire rod is bent and the compression rod and maybe some bushing are riped now. I can't really tell if the rack& pinion is bent cause of the picture or anything in front on the brake caliper. Also how's the braking now. Any rumbling ???

your wheels APPEAR to be fully repairable as long as you use a ASE certified wheel repair shop. stay away from mobile units, they are quick temporary fixes

If its not the tie rod, its the lower control arm. I just replaced mine last week my left tire was set back like yours.
