Curbed my bbs's
I thought I was going to cry the when I curbed my BBSs. I was trying to be extremely careful and it still happened.

/\ **** happens... sometimes you just get distracted and have to pay for it, driving skill has little to do with most curb wheel damage, just lack of paying attention to what your doing with the car.
Yeah I seen someone on here or the evoxforums who was selling tires and BBS MR rims for dirt cheap. He did say there was one tiny little scratch on one of them but I could not see it from his pictures even though it was a close up. Search man...search. Hopefully they are still for sale.
Thus why I said were you inattentive. I know things happen but really if you take in consideration the lower profile tire and enough care for the car, things like this don't happen. Yes, driving skill/experience has a factor in a situation like this. Gauging distance, estimating turning radius, manipulating gas input, etc...how does this not take driving skill? As far as I see it parking a car or even riding along side a curb, you're still driving the car.
