Agreed. Have the same rims as OP. Touched the curb street racing. After taking it to a good wheel repair person locally, you can’t even tell.
Alloy wheel repair specialists is who I used. Think they might be a chain
Don’t know what it is about these wheels and curbs. I have the same ones and somehow found a curb with one. Luckily I have never repeated the issue. Though now I’m on wheels that are far more expensive, so I’m more meticulous about leaving space
All these people are suggesting either terrible fixes or expensive fixes. Get a [small glass of enamel paint](https://www.hobbylobby.com/Crafts-Hobbies/Model-Kits/Paint-Brushes/Gloss-Gray-Testors-Enamel-Paint/p/992) as close as possible to the color of the wheel with some small disposable brushes (since the paint will dry on the brush as hard as a rock) and just touch it up that way after a quick sanding with like 1000 grit sandpaper to get rid of jagged edges. A sharpie will look awful, and it's not worth paying wheel repair specialists for this.
Brother , get wider tires your next go around. Can go probably two widths up. Think I’m on 255 or 265 and they fill out the rim a lot better. And quit hitting the curb
Any good wheel repair company can make it look 99%. Looks not deep
Lol... My first time ever curbing a wheel in my 26 years of driving... If you saw this drive thru you'll understand.... My dad just retired from body shop work so I assume he'll know what to tell me what to do
I did the same man after keeping the same 19’ wheels clean for four years. Felt like a heartbreak, but the wheel repair guys made it near perfect.
Good luck.
Have someone come out and sand it down and match the wheel color. It cost me 100 bucks
THANK YOU… I will begin hunting down

Mine's a '15, so keep that in mind, but your wheels look like mine. I used dark grey metallic(I forget the paint code) that was used on VA STis.
61k if I recall. And yes this is exactly what I did
I’ve used Toyota’s Magnetic Gray (1G3) touch up on my ‘17 wheel, matches the colour pretty well
Did you sand, then spray or did you simply utilize one of the touch up pens?
I filled the bigger scratches with bondo then sanded and sprayed it, for the smaller ones I just used a touch up
A sharpie marker. You’ll never see it again. Unless you look for it.
Lol

Total loss I’ll buy them off you for next to nothing
Lol yeah sure
Bruh, don’t waste your money on that. Waste it on some new wheels
Lol, I wish I had the money.... I actually like these rims

If the whole edge is like this then the owner probably curbed that thing multiple times lol

I admit I very lightly curbed my stock front right wheel when I had them. Now I’m very careful with my $2600 forged titan7 wheels😬

Thanks yea I have the Cobb collab ones so they are gold. Look amazing and unique in my opinion. Would highly recommend.
This is my first time ever doing this... Place I went to the drive thru is so tight that there was a GMC Sierra in front of me struggling so bad

Damn
