little dent on the wheel
Today, I changed my tires to Michelin PS2 and I have noticed little dent on front wheel(AMG 19"). It was inside of the rim (oppoisite side from face of the wheel) very slightly dented. The Hunter road force balance was OK even with this dent. Should I repair the dent or replace?
I still have very very slight vibration on steering wheel above 50 but it could be just road. Or maybe this could be just me that because I saw the dent I might be more sensitive to vibration even it is normal.

I would say just have it fixed, but you have vibrations so you might want to replace... Do you have Airmatic or ABC? I have seen a lot of people complaining about vibrations with airmatic suspension.

I just tested on highway where not many cars were there.
The problem is I hear huming noise/rumbling at high speed.
It only occurs above 55. Then reduced below. I do have airmatic.
Slight vibration also follows above 55, more vibration with turning the steering wheel to the right.
This noise was there before the tire change, I hoped the noise will go away with new tire but it is still there.
I am suspecting hub bearing but the car is only 15k miles on it.
