ok today i was driving and some idiot pulls over into my lane for no appearnt reason i had to stop so fast my brakes locked up and my rear end slid into the curb on the drivers side and bagned the lip of my wed sports pretty bad , and i was wondering if any of u guys have any suggestions as to fix this without going to a rim place (i cant afford that for now). i heard that i could sand down the scraces wich appears to work ok for a temp solution. any tips or suggestions would help thanx

 

Post a pic. I have had luck sanding and feathering out light/moderate curb rash. If it's dented, wheel shop.

 

stupid drivers.

 

i ll try to put some pics up tomorrow and the rim is actually dented slightly in several areas but the outer edge is seriously messed up about 1/3 of the wheel is pretty bad ive sanded off the light stuff with sucsess but im thikin that i might need to visist a wheel place for that. all this makes me seriously P.O. ive been told that my rims are worth qiute a pretty penny being 2 peice 15 inch weds and for good measure ill have a pic of my car up too

 

heres my effed up rims it was hard to get good enought pics but i thnk ull get the picture lol and one of my 7 its a little dirty right now

 

doesnt look that bad i cant really see much tho, just be lucky ur lip didnt fold in like mine. it took me a while with a hammer peice of wood and adjustible wrench and sanding and it looks decent. did it just sracth it??? if so might be able 2 sand it smooth but if its 2 bad then i dunno

 

o yeah i see you live in fort wayne, you should go 2 the meet at glenbrook this sat.

 

Start with 120 grit paper on a wood or metal block. You will need to work up to 2000 grit wet/dry and polish from there. For the dent, save up for the wheel shop.

 

i know this is a stupid question but what wheels are those?

 

This is like 3 years old?

 

old or not, those are some sweet looking wheels.

 

Let this thread die lol. Weds fins are the wheels
