Default steering

hey guys just need a general opinion last night i found out the hard way of the importance of good tyres as i ended up losing the front in the wet and crashing into a gutter at about 30-40 k's at an angle of around 45 degrees. now the front tyres need replacing because one of them is torn and the other looks at the end of it's life (probably how i lost it) but now i have to steer about 45 degrees right to drive straight ahead, my first course of action is an alignment and some new tyres. but if this doesnt correct the steering then what could possibly be broken or bent and how much could it end up costing me to fix? i drive a vs commodore and im not exactly made of money being a p plater and all so this is very worrying

edit: hmm 40k's is probably an exageration id say more like 20-30 still somewhat quick though
