How long does it take...

to scratch your new rims?

Well apparently for me, it takes 2 days. Some clown drove me into a curb this morning. I got a nice 3 inch rash on one rim with a tear on my rubber as well. I think that I might go postal

Re: How long does it take...

I curbed the rim (front passenger side of course) on my 20th the first day I had it. I almost went mental as well. Eventually, you'll get in the habit of taking it "a little easier" when it comes to parking, etc.

Oh yeah, and I also have many lovely "scrapes" on my front cowling/whatever from coming up too close to them cement barricades in the parking lot. Oh well... live and learn. Consider it practise for when you have kids.

Cheers...

P.S. Just make sure you drive fast... no one will notice the curbage!

LOL, Id rather let the d-bag run into me than hit a curb...I mean, if they hit you they're gonna pay, if you dodge them and curb your wheel, you're stuck with the bill
