hey guys, i was dropping my dad to the airport 4 am this morning. i was really tired and hit a curb. theres no curb or scuff marks. but the rim looks a little bent. its noticeable from close up. my car only has 1000 miles and this already happened. should i buy a new rim? is this gonna cause more problems. or take it to a rim shop?

thank you guys please help...

 

if its bent, dont drive on it
go get a new one bro

 

i shouldnt drive on it even for a tiny little bend? i mean it hardly looks bent. is there a tire/rim warranty ? thanls

 

IMO, if its bent AT ALL, i do not rec. to drive it on, its not going to get better
but i can get alot worse

there is NO warranty on rims/tires from Toyota/Scion
tires are warrantied from the tire manufacturer

 

thanks bro.. im gonna get a new rim fro mcgeorge parts. Thanks man i appreciate it. i dunno how this happened. my dads gonna make me pay for it lol. thanks

 

no problem
driving on a bent/damaged rim can cause issues with the tire, so when you replace the rim, inspect the tire make sure nothing was damaged on it

 

You can have the wheel fixed. We have a guy that comes into our dealership to fix curbed wheels.

 

this is a great oppurtunity for you to upgrade and get some aftermarket wheels

 

Always remember, your health and life when you're driving rests on those 4 wheels that touch the ground. Bent = catatrophe waiting to happen. I would suggest you go into the market for aftermarket wheels like tC_kevin said.

You can always check eBay .. there's alots of OEM wheels for sale on eBay and at pretty goood prices.

 

I say drive it until you rim flys off and then get a new!!
I'm just joking!! I agree with the rest of the ppls on here, get a new one. It will cause you more problems if you don't!!
