Question ???Curb Rash on innerside of rim????

Just took a look at my wheels while it was up on a lift, and I noticed I had curb rash on the inner side of the wheels... I know I never jumped some kind of curb or anything like that to beable to scrap the inner part of the rim... What the hell is this from??

mrsypher,

Car Wash.

Leading cause of this problem is from people who use car washes. Only takes once to happen.

If the scrapes look like odd scratches and not parallel to the rotation of the rim, then it could be the tire mounting machine.

Nah, it's not from a car wash, nor I don't think it's from the mounting machine. It really looks like I hit a curb or something...
