Rear tire leaning outward

So a drunk uninsured driver clipped me into a 180 early Sunday now the rear passenger tire is leaning outward I looked but nothing looks bent but I'm no expert on suspension

do we guess the next line. OK, real fun begins. I have a licence to carry so when he stopped, I just put one between his eyes and claim I felt my life was in danger.

You mean the top of the tire is leaning as if you have a lot of positive camber? That's impossible without something being broken. You gotta take it to a shop. They won't charge you to put it up on a lift and take a look at it. Then you can decide what to do from there.

It's more like if it was an lot to make a right turn but all parts seem to be in place nothing is visibly broken I'm going to take off the other side and compare but I would like to have a idea of what's up so I'm not overcharged

Oh, well that would be your toe; that's adjustable. You may just need an alignment. I'd get it aligned asap tho cuz that will ruin that tire in no time.

Something is bent. Most likely one of the camber arms. They have a slight bend to them from the factory, so if you don't know what you're looking for, they may "look" normal but are really bent.
