sucks so bad, i have the 17" enk's on my box and i curb'd it last nite at taco bell, its not to bad just about a inch and a half scape on the lip, but i cant look at my box without it jumpin out at me
sux so bad, they were flawless
oh well i guess it gives the box a lil more character
like a hot chick with a mustache

Bummer.

There are companies out there that repair rims.

like a hot chick with a mustache

and thats a good thing?????

taco bell drive thru sucks

Lets see how bad any pics? yes it does suck

take it to a tire shop, maybe they can smooth it out for you.

All it takes is a rotary tool and a little matching paint to make it almost invisible. Try it.

Dremels, one of the most useful tools ever invented. :wink:

Didn't your box get whacked on base? Claim your wheel with the rest of the damage. :D

I feel your pain, dude..that just recently happened to me, too. As soon as I heard that horrible scraping sound...oh, the horror.. :(

This is why I haven't bought rims. I know that a week after copping them I would go to parallel park and hear that awful kkkrrrchhhcikich (that's the sound of a rim scraping).

i've never curbed any rim on any car kinda lucky i suppose. but then again i dont parallell park too much but still. in my dads f150 long bed i scrubbed tires in a taco bell drive thru.tho. and long cars short driveways. or hey run 45series tires with a built in rim protector lip and bam less chance of fin thing up. thats one reason i love 45 series yokohama avs es100's

happened to me about a week ago...parallel parking to return and overdue DVD...brand new 17"s...had them on for 4 days...and even worse, I had plans to take them off the next day for winter...

Those would look funny on a xB. There usually used on caddies by old farts that have lost or never had depth perception. :D

Usually used on lowriders as well, with Dayton/wire wheels sticking out so far, makes it easy not to scuff your shoes. After you rub the feelers enough times you will get the "feel" of where you need to cut the wheels. Kind of trains you where you need to put your car. I know most people wouldn't want them on their box for fear of looks. There is also some different tips you can put on the ends, skulls, dragons etc. But $10 vs curbing your $2000+ set of rims... just a suggestion :lol:


Actually I wonder where you would mount them to on the xB, if you even could.

that sucks man but not as bad as a hot chick with a mustache

It cost me about $100 to get a rim fixed and it was filled in and color matched.
