Left Rear Wheel Tilts a Bit

Just returned from a 70 mph drive and noticed no unusual noise, my good
neighbor, noticed the left rear wheel is tilted inward, in other words
the top of the wheel is tilted inward as the bottom is tilted outward by
a couple of degrees.
I jacked the car up and the wheel has no movement when I kicked the
top or sides, taking a quick peek underneath, it's raining in Boston,
saw no abnormals .....had the rear wheel bearings replaced about 6
months ago and just on big pot holes or angle approaches to the
driveway, would hear a slight tension sound coming from the rear
......Maybe it finally broke ...
Plan on taking a 400 mile trip this Friday, wear the tire a bit, but
am concern about causing additional sever damage... minor damage will
not bother me ....TIA
