I was charged with dui and misdemeanor evasion three years ago and now my informal probation is up. I had no problem renew my green card but will it affect applying for citizenship?

Discuss your situation with an attorney before filing. It may be in your best interest to delay filing for a couple of years.
Which state was the DUI / evasion charge in? An attorney is indeed a good idea. A simple DUI a few years ago (as long as you disclose it)might not make you ineligible, but the evading charge doesn't help.
One thing you should do while you're working on this is to obtain whatever records you can from your trial as well as a statement as to your good standing through probation from the probation department.
What you certainly do NOT want to do is fail to disclose this on the application.
