maybe new wheels would help raise the car a lil.. any feedback?

wheels don't support the frame. with a drop like that, bigger wheels will just degrade ride quality and possibly increase understeer.
as you've just experienced, a huge drop puts a lot of stress on components you can't see: bushings, joints, etc. if you raise the ride height a little and get a factory alignment, you'll be good to go.
