HELP PLEASE...

I have a 2003 nissan altima...I have 20' rims on it and I just went in a pot hole and bent the rim....I had the rim fixed and it looks like it was never bent...but now when I go about 50 and more when I put on the brakes the steeering wheel shakes...can it be they did not balance that tire or wheel alingmnet is needed?

that they never re-balanced the tire (which would need to be done definitely) Or there is damage to the tire itself from hitting the pothole (you may start to see a 'bubble' appear as time goes on or the steel belt inside may have been damaged)

Or, the pothole also damaged part of your front suspension as well.
