So should I have dealer inspected the car? What could go wrong if the car drives perfectly fine?
Just a little nervous that dealer might over claim or estimate the damage and charge big $$$$.
Thanks.

Take it in to the dealer to have the tire & wheel inspected. The tire may have sustained some sidewall damage. Even if the car tracks straight, the wheel alignment should be checked. Slight alignment errors will result in eventual abnormal tire wear.
The X3 front suspension is very rugged, but a impact like can do some "not immediately apparent" damage. Don't take a chance with your safety!
