Car damage my rim looks like it has a dent / rim is a little bent?

Question

i must have hit a curb with the car and the front right tire rim has sctacthes and i notice the rim may be a little bent / dented. what should i do? is it dangerous to continue driving it??

Answer 1

If it is noticeably bent then it wouldn't be safe at all to drive in. Get your rims repaired or replaced cause if the tire slips off the rim it could be catastrophic.

Answer 2

If it's an aluminum rim, make sure it's not torn. This will look different from a scratch. If the tire still holds air, it will be okay. Just save your money to get a new rim. And soon because that bent rim is going to wear out that tire quicker.
