Bent wheels causing pull?

I purchased a 2011 Panamera 4 back in June for my wife with some 22" Rohana RC9s on it. The first things we did when getting it home is we replaced the pads and rotors and got an alignment. The tech told us there were NO wheel weights on the wheels and they are bent. He balanced them the best he could. One wheel took 100g of weight. Furthermore the alignment was way off. He got everything within spec except the front driver side camber. He was unable to move it. It was maxed out and would allow him to adjust it any further. I have no knowledge of any accidents but everything looked fine to me when I did my brakes.

The car constantly pulls to the right pretty bad. You have to keep constant pressure on the wheel at highway speeds or it wants to go off the road. Tire pressure is good. Brakes are new. Wheels are as balanced as possible. Alignment is in spec except front left camber.

Two questions.

1. What could cause the front left camber to be so far off? What can I try to get it on spec?

2. Can a bent wheel cause pulling? If not what could it be?
