Wheel scrape - cause for alarm?

Title says it all. I was wheeling last week and just noticed I took a chunk out of one of my wheels. Normally wouldn’t be concerned but this one is riiiiight next to the tire. I’ve attached a picture to show. What do y’all think, something I need to worry about?

 

No need to worry. I have tonnes of those, many of them much worse than that. Hasn't been a problem.

 

Looks fine to me

 

Yup, looks totaled to me.

 

Thats fine, nothing more then a little curb check, unless you get a flap or a chunk missing its fine.

That's nothing to be concerned about , I've seen worse damage done by incompetent tire installers

 

If anything, I would just try to smooth the sharp edge on the tire side. Maybe if you can get a small file in there to take it down. Other than that, just something you'll notice every time you look at that side of your truck.

 

You gotta grind that point down. Other than that, a wheel place might be able to fix that.

 

Thanks for the input, everyone! Now I know not to worry

 

It's a problem if you have OCD

What are the best tires for curbs? Been running Thornbirds and they have no grip on curbs.

 

The TRD OR wheels are a tough wheel. That chip/scrape is no issue.

Thanks for the tip! Do they come in P345/20/24?

 

As long as it’s not poking your tire your should be good . If your paranoid about it file it down to smooth .

 

Toyota says it’s normal...

 

Curbs at Costco must be brutal. I suggest having your spouse go back and demand to speak to a manager if she has the right haircut.

 

You should replace it right away. Rim structure is compromised. Who knows how long you have before total destruction.


KIDDING!!!

You're fine. Use it, abuse it.
