   wet surface, car skidded, no excess speed at all, infact slow, banged into kerb, no front end damage or anything, just curbed wheel bad......
   
   .....now wheel gone back.
   
   back towards arch, i.e. full lock it scrubs on wing arch.
   
   Axle ? wishbone ? leg ?

    shifted to suspension, can shift to other if you wish.
    
    Most likely going to be wishbone related, doubtful you have bent the chassis attach points

    well just got it checked earlier on today, yup its the wishbone ! the thing i got changed previously even though it didnt need it, while i got it lowered just for that extra touch and now the new wishbone has bent, hmmmm new wishbone needed now.
