i did that before too but my rim straight up jacked up the curb!!! I stopped immediately and checked out my rim, all it had was the powder from the broken cement. Haha of course my rims are big ole chrome heavy things, but hey, the curb wont mess with me again... :) Guess u could try a rim repair place....thats all i can think of...

That isn't too bad, I have done a lot worse to my rims before but not by hitting a curb, by hitting some nasty pot holes.<P>Take it to a rim repair shop, they should be able to tell you right away if it is repairable or not and what the cost still be.<P>If the cost to fix it is too close to the original price of the rim then don't bother getting it fixed just buy a new one but if the repair cost isn't too much then go for it, they'll make it like it's brand new again.
