How embarrassing. I clipped a curb. Can't recall when I've ever done that, but of course, I had to do it with my Elise. Damaged the wheel -- there's actually a tiny chunk out of it, just near the rim. And the paint is peeling. And the tire sustained a small amount of damage to the sidewall.
Can a wheel be fixed, or is it a lost cause? Where would I take it for that kind of repair?
I can ask a tire dealer for an opinion on the tire, I guess.
I'll have to check it more carefully tomorrow, but it doesn't look severe enough to avoid using the car in the short run. But I obviously do want to get it fixed/replaced ASAP.
Suggestions? I'll try to post a pic tomorrow.
