to share my frustration with all, FOUR bent rims!!!!!!!!!!!!....and here i thought i was being careful with the rims...i see my efforts were a waste....new jersey sucks.
i just dont get it....i thought these rims were tough!!!!!!
now its gonna be about 130 a rim to fix them....debating whether I should even bother, they are only going to get messed up again.

Sorry to hear about your rims , welcome to the club : https://mbworld.org/forums/c36-amg-c43-amg-w202/132563-nuts-bolts-boy-did-i-get-screwed.html
Ouch. Sorry. Yeah, Jersey roads are cruel.
I just got some curb rash on my right front rim and want to have it buffed out. I used to know a guy that would come right to your house and fix it, but don't know what happened to him.
Such a hassle.

Sorry to hear that, stock rims are as soft as fresh made tofu, got some multi-pieces forged beauties to remedy the problem.
you would think you pay enough for the car they could give you some tough rims! flinestone wheels would be ideal
yeah they are oem btw

Same here from Chicago....rear rims are in bad shape.
I am toying with the idea of trading my C55 in soon and moving up to E55 so I really need to get them fixed or the dealer will probably really hose me on the trade-in.
