So I hit my 95 eclipse gst's front right tire on a curb n sumn had to of broke. My front right tire now is pushed back towards the frame n has about an inch clearance from rubbing. Everyone says its my contol arm but I had a guy look underneath with me n nothing had snapped so others are thinking a strut could be bent. I just want to know whats messed up and what parts I need to correct the problem.

You will have to have the suspension and steering inspected by a qualified mechanic, as the alignment will be affected greatly by something bent far less than you cave see with your eyes. If the strut is bent, the tower may also be bent, a 1 or 2 Deg miss alignment in a tower will destroy tyres in a few weeks. So get it checked property.
