If a rim is bent, it can sometimes be repaired, depending on the severity of the damage and the type of rim material. Mild bends can often be straightened by a professional, while severe bends or cracks may require replacement. However, driving on a bent rim can damage the tire and affect vehicle handling, so it's advisable to have both the rim and tire assessed by a professional. Always prioritize safety and consider replacing parts that are compromised.

The edge of your rim is bent will this cause a problem?

I was driving against the curb on my left side for a second and now the edge of the plate rim is bent. I don't think anything is wrong with the bolts that secure it to the wheel, it's just the edge of the plate that is usually tucked underneath the tire... If that part is untucked and bent outward, will it cause any problems? And how can I get it fixed without paying too much? Thank you.
