    Need help with suspension

    So about 4 months ago I hit my driver wheel on a side wall on my 2008 335i and ever since then my car doesn’t drive straight and it wanders like crazy and pulls to the right really hard. Ever since then I have gotten new wheels and two sets of tires. I have also gotten 3 alignments and have brought the car to multiple shops including BMW and no one can tell me what’s wrong. Nothing looks bent under the car and nothing is leaking anywhere. I’m completely lost and not sure what else to do / check. I have bilstein struts and H&R Spring’s if that matters. Any help is greatly appreciated, tired of growing money at it and not getting anywhere. Also the car has 91k miles, thanks.

    Your alignment print out with before and after numbers should tell you where to look for the problem. You also maybe just due for other suspension work.

    Well multiple shops said my allignment is where it’s suppose to be. Also my struts and springs are fairly new, it started doing this after I hit my old wheel.

    How long have you owned the vehicle ?
    What specifically have you modified on the suspension system ?
    Are most or all bushings/ball joints/control arms 2008 OE from factory ?
