Aside from your tires, wheels are another part of your vehicle that has constant contact with the road. As a result, it's not surprising that they're prone to damage. We discuss the most common causes of wheel damage below. When you need wheel repair in Gaithersburg, MD, or the surrounding areas, give NYLA Magic Recon Auto Center a call.
Potholes are one of the most common causes of wheel and rim damage. Avoid driving over potholes as much as possible to keep your wheels safe. Even gently driving over a seemingly minor pothole might inflict damage. Potholes are particularly abundant in the winter when the road freezes, expands, and contracts more often. They also appear regularly during rainy seasons, so be especially cautious when roads are wet.
Curb damage is often caused when you round a corner too sharply or perform a subpar parking job. The severity of curb damage varies. The damage is sometimes simply cosmetic, but bumping up against a curb can create unsightly scuff marks or even cracks in the metal. Bring your vehicle to a nearby wheel shop to have the damage evaluated.
Every time the brakes are applied, brake dust leaves a small coating of dust over the wheels. This dust will degrade the surface of the wheel over time. If the wheels are painted, the paint will start to peel away. To avoid this, clean the brake dust from your wheels on a regular basis. If the damage has already been done, your wheels can typically be refinished rather than replaced entirely.
