Default thumping sound when turning right

I just replaced my tires to eliminate a thumping noise on the front right side. Now it is worse. Could this be a bent axle, bad control arm, bent steering column, or missing bushing? It happens when slightly turning to the right on the highways. +35mph. I like my Aveo.

Is it a thump, or a clicking? If it's only happening when you're turning, I'm inclined to think it's your drive axle.
