Well guys, I've curbed my rims. It's a little scuff but it's killing me to look at it. Any way to make slight curb rash any less noticable? I have aluminum rims. It's a little less noticable when the rims are clearn but I'd like to possibly maybe smooth it or something.:(

And also, don't you hate narrow streets and even more narrow parking lot entrances with high curbs? I've seen cars curb themselves on that damn entrance so many times that I'm about to take it up with the University parking lot services. >.> Makes no sense that the entrance is so narrow.:mad

Hey are they polished?? if so you can sand them a little and go up the sanding grits depending on how the deep the marks are. so if its pretty bad you could start with 400 and than go to 600, 800, 1000, 1500 than use 3m rubbing compound and shine them back up! i have done this many many times it just takes time and than they will look like brand new!
pm me if you need a better walk through! if you post pics i could kinda help more!
Good luck

Will post pics up tomorrow. And I know this will be the last time I let someone talk me into tire stretching.>.>

And they seem to be just be polished. No clearcoat that I see.
