Default dont know whats wrong

i hit a curb going like 30 and now my front driver side tire is bent inwards. Do u think that this is just my cv joint damaged, or do u think that i need a new drive shat?

The CV axle does NOT have any control or affect over wheel alignment. You more than likely bent a control arm, hub, or strut mount. If it's bent that badly, the damaged part should be fairly obvious. Good Luck!

Yeah that bent should be fairly obvious. Possibly a tie rod or any of the parts Joel suggested. Merely look at each side and see which one has something that doesn't look like the other side's.
