Somehow F'd up my rim ...
I don't know if it was me or someone who had driven my car but my front left tire has a small cut on it and the rim is F'd up in that area too. I quickly went to Tire Shop to measure pressure and guy said that the tear at the tire is not serious at all and that air pressure in all 4 tires was good. The rim though is dented but it looks as if a peice has been chipped off. Not noticeable I guess but will they care when the lease expires? Am I responsible for that?

I hammered my front left rim so hard it sounded like a huge japanese gong, I swear.... the dent in the rim was the size of half a lemon and there were 2 cuts in the tire.
When I had the tire pried off I could nearly stick my finger through the crack, and the inside of the rim showed a long crack.
Despite the extensive damage, I hadn't lost any tire pressure and, best of all, didn't have a friggin' blowout right there on Route 78. The roads in Hudson county are worse than they used to be in Communist East Germany, and I'm not exaggerating. I was appalled at the poor infrastructure in and around New York City when I first came to the country...
