Look under your car n loom for the pieces/parts that you bent n replace. If you tweaked mounting points on the unibody it's gonna be tough to fix. I'd Imagine bent tierod or control arm?

Maybe jack up both front sides and compare sides if you are having trouble finding anything

I would say something was bent pretty badly and wasn't repaired properly, then when the vehicle was lowered, it amplified the problem.

OR, if I am reading correctly, you are rubbing on the inside wheel well and want to stop, which may be issues with the tie rod. Or it could be an alignment problem. Was one done?

Im guessing something wasnt repaired properly. Find whats bent/out of alignment and get it fixed.
