I can't believe what I've done to my wheels! What a nightmare!!!
When I went out for dinner yesterday, I went into a Plaza w/ tight corners entering the car park (all parkings in Hong Kong has tight corners), I was trying to get closer to where I get the ticket, I CURBED my wheels!!!!!
I curbed my wheels which I only had them on for one week! So sad :'(
Although It wasn't harming the structure of the rim, it does now have a big mark on the right front wheel...
:'(

oh no... not on those lovely OZs
How bad was it?
I had an 01 Acura CL-S before and I curbed the front wheel on the 3rd day after I got the car. The wheel design was dumb because the spokes are actual sticking out beyond the tire quite a bit.
Really sorry to hear that.

It's about 2.5 inch long, and there is a small one next to it...
I think I can take it to some wheel place to get it fixed, but I ordered a new one today already... I just can't stand a new set of rims w/ curb marks.... :'(

In case I curb it again....
Actually, it's going to take a few days to get it fixed, I don't wanna have my car walk on un-matched shoes to wait for getting it fixed....
