I'm pretty new and I just can't figure out what's wrong. Need your expert opinions before I buy a set of tires!

I hit a curb while back with my stock wheels and cracked a rim. Got a replica stock rim and replaced the front right side, but the car starts to vibrate when I go 50+ MPH. Dealership told me that it was a bent rim on the other rim in the front after a Diag, so I got another replica rim and replaced that side. Took my car to discount tires and got the wheels put on and balanced.

So now I know I got 4 perfectly non-bent rims & balanced Tires. It still feels like the front left tire is going up and down off the road like I hear rubs and it stops, and rubs, and stops when going over 50+ mph, like the wheel is being lifted from the ground for a sec. I'm wondering what can it be, alignment, bad balancing, bent rim, or bad tires?

If the tire is coming off the road usually that means the strut is weak/leaks.
I would go back to the tire store & ask them. Make sure the road you are test driving on is smooth. See if the tire store will check balance again & check tire for damage. If the accident "cracked" the rim that could damage the tire, look for bulges on the sidewall. and of course check PSI first

If you cracked an OEM rim, there's a lot of stuff that could be damaged. It's hard to break an OEM rim.

At the very least get your alignment checked.
