I thought there were places you can go to get them fixed?
It is just curb rash.

I've sent quiete a few guys there, and they were all extremely satisfied.
They only charge $45 for the same job Tru Wheels does for $200.
Their turn-around time is only one day too.

go get an emery cloth and some polish. and take care of it yourself if it's not too bad. I've done it before on a friend's wheels and it came out really good.
