Hit a curb at low speeds. Could I have damaged something?
So I slid into a curb and my front right wheel hit it at probably 2-3 mph. The underside of the bumper scraped the curb but the wheel seems to be fine. When I let go of the wheel the car goes straight and the space between the wheel and fender is equal on both sides. Did the tire absorb all the force? Is there anything I should check. It seems to be fine im just paranoid that I damaged something.

If you really want to breath easy, take the car to get an alignment. $100 +/- for piece of mind isn't that bad, not to mention you should do an alignment one a year or so anyways.

I hit a curb once going like 20-30 and it broke my lower control arm, sway bar link, and busted the boot on the upper a arm. Surprisingly it didnt damage the wheel just gave it curb rash. Some how I manage to drive it home too. It scared me, everytime id brake it go far right.. Drove it like 30 miles like that. Should of towed it but was strapped for cash. Should be fine at those speeds though just check the alignment, also just incase have them take off the wheel and put it on the balancer to see if it wobbles.
