Default New guy needs some help.

So a few weeks ago I happed to slide around a corner (didn't mean to) and long story short I pegged the curb with my rear passenger side wheel. I bent the hell out of my wheel (im now on the spare) and ever since its been making a whirring sound that reminds me of an axle bearing making noise. Now, I was driving down the street the other day and had some guy flag me down saying that my wheel was wobbeling. Does anyone have any input on what is causing this? Im more of a honda guy so im not completely familiar with rwd Fords. Thanks in advance.

You probably bent the end of the axle, that would also account for the whirring sound.
