Rim damage from scraping kerb.. Is it only cosmetic or something more?Should I get it checked?
Motor Vehicle Maintenance & Repair Asked by Sleepyheadxx on November 1, 2020
Ok, so today coming out of the shopping centre carpark I scrapped my rear left rim on the kerb.
I’m worried because it looks really bad & is around most of the rim. There are a few deep spots of damage..
I wasn’t driving fast probably about 10kms p/hr
Not sure if it’s just really bad cosmetic damage or whether there would be damage to the tire and car?? What should I do & is it ok to drive with it like that ?
Ps. I’m a total noob when it comes to cars so any advice would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks enter image description here

The image doesn't show much details, but from what I can see there is no structural damage, just scratches.
As long as it's not dented, bent or cracked, you should be fine driving it.
