Annoying Noise
1998 my car got hit only on the passanger door and the car did a 540 spin and when i got it back from the shop i herd something grinding and so i looked at my side mirror and saw the wheel wabbling so i took it back to the shop and they replaced the hole wheel and so when i was driving home i still hear something either grinding or rubbing i look at the wheel well nuthing scrapping but what i have noticed if the car is just sitting, and its just park and you push the car when its park u hear something squeeking even if u push it allittle, so is it the wheel bearings?

jack the car up, and try to shake every wheel by hand holding at the 12 o'clock and 6 o'clock positions, then at 3 and 9. if it moves more than a fraction of an inch it is probably the bearings.
also try to turn the wheels while it's jacked up and see if you can hear the squeak and where it's coming from.
if you did a 540 i would go get all your other wheels checked for warpage too.
