Take your vehicle to a place that sells tires and does front end alignments. Have the wheel and tire that hit the curb inspected for damage. Tell them what happened and have the steering and suspension parts inspected for any damage. Have a front end alignment performed for sure. If I hit a curb at 65 mph I would be very suspect that that tire was damaged and would consider replacing that tire no matter if it looked good or not. The safety of you and your family may be in danger with that tire on the car. It all depends on how hard you hit the curb and only you know that.

When a curb was hit and bent one of the front tire rims It was replaced because it was really damaged the car is shaking now could another rim have been damaged without noticing?

Yes, you should check all of the rims and while you're at it, recheck the one that was just replaced. You might also have a bent axle shaft. Check that the new wheel was balanced when installed. Check alignment and other front end parts for possible damage if the curb strike was very hard. You may have also damaged your hub assembly when you hit the curb


Can you use curb in a sentence?

yes you can, an example would be "Don't hit the curb". another would be "can you use curb in a sentence". Edit; The edge of the road, or the gutter, is spelled kerb in Australia. Curb has a different meaning altogether. For example ... "If you wish to live a long and healthy life you should curb your appetite for fatty foods and alcohol." It simply means to be more moderate, not that what-ever it is should be eliminated completely.

Ideally you should be as close as possible to the curb when you finish parking, just to lessen the chances that your car won't accidentally get hit or scraped by cars driving too close to you on the side of the road. However, 12-18 inches is usually a safe distance away from the curb.


Should airbags deploy if you hit a curb?

Generally no. The speed at which something is hit has a lot to do with it but also whether or not the object that is stuck moves at all. The curb is usually not high enough to cause the car to remain in contact with it. The car jumps the curb. The speed can be as low as 15 MPH to get an airbag to deploy if something like a sold wall is struck.
