I scratched my rim today on a cirb! not bad but bad enough for me to take notice...does anyone have any easy fix to this? any help would be appreciated. Thanks!!
ya I feel like an idiot! I always look out for that stuff and the one time I don't it bites me! The rim is just the stock rims that come with the 06 GT, I will be replacing them eventually but in the mean time I want to keep them nice. I did see online about sanding and polishing the area. I think it is actually refered to as "curb rash".

so I found a fix! ( = Remember I said it wasn't bad but bad enough for me to notice. I used some fine wet dry sandpaper, sanded down on the curb rash area. Once I was happy with what I was able to sand out, I applied Mothers mag & aluminum polish Turned out awesome! very happy with the results!
Dont know how well it would work on a really bad curb rash, but cheaper then a new rim!
that one has been there for awhile. in her defense I did get on her when I saw it a while back sense I'm the one that washes it. I haven't seen any sense.
If it was a regular occurence I would be thinking yugo!
I realize this thread is a bit old but I just now had the time to read it. I'm curious if the amount of curb rash is so bad that you would have to get your wheels balanced after sanding down the bad spots. Wouldn't just a gram or so throw off the balance?
