    If you bent the wheel that is why your car shakes. If you didn't bend your wheel you could have knocked the wheel out of balance or bent one of your lateral links which are replaceable. I would have the wheel checked at a tire shop for out of roundness or balance and also have them check your suspension pieces

      Your post answers your question: Curb + Wheel = bent wheel. Bent wheel + rotation = vibration.

      When you get a new wheel on, have your alignment checked. If you hit the curb hard enough to bend the wheel, you probably bent atleast 1 component of the suspension.

        Thanx that was help wen i go home ill swap my rim with another.. but its relli bent so i highly doubt its the rim alone its gotta be sumthin else... if a suspension part is also bent or outta place wat is the most likely part that would need to be replaced... i can start lookin at that area or part and move on my process from there on... please n thanx

          if you really smacked the curb you COULD have bent your wheel studs but its highly unlikely, change the rim over and you should be good to go.

            i replaced the rim and got an alignment, it cured all my vibration woes
