Let me start with the basics:

05 Rx8 GT 6-spd
642xx miles

18x9.5 + 38 wheels rolled fenders and tein s-techs on stock shocks are the only suspension mods done so far.

A few months ago I hit a patch of ice and slid into a curb destroyed the two drivers side wheels, replaced em. Had all the suspension components "inspected" was told everything but alignment (obviously) was fine. So I had the alignment fixed and it was fine.

However, at some point I realized that there is like a metallic whir/squeak which gets louder on bumps but is always there, and more disconcerting is every time I turn right (slight or hard) at over like 40-45 mph so mostly highway it feels like the car is slowly slipping only happens turning right and this never used to happen. It's cyclical as if it's happening with the wheels spinning but not quite as fast it's really hard to explain. There is no visible wabble or anything of the like according to friends driving behind / next to me. I haven't been under the car recently due to weather. But I'm curious as to your opinions. Any help would be awesome.

Thanks in advance.

Check the wheel bearings.

Time for a slalom run, if the sound gets louder and softer as you run a slalom then bearings are shot.

There is a piece of metal that directs air to cool the brake caliper. Check and see if that is rubbing.
