your rear wheel? sounds like:

 

1. you went and bang the rear wheel against a curb

2. the nuts are not tightened

3. there's sumthing wrong with the rear axle

if your car still under warranty, go to your SE and tee-gong

 

Otherwise may have to go to a mechanic... that one i dunno liao... maybe some of the other bros here can help...

ur later description is not something not "slight slant", sounds more like serious slant. alignment confirm gone case. if normal steel type, cheap to replace, if sports rim, confirm gone. better replace then after realign with high speed balancing.

It maybe the camber has gone negative....get a 4 wheel alignment check and rectify...

If the rear wheels is of independent suspension, the slight tilt is the camber angle setting. Many modified street cars had negative camber setting.
