Why do you need a x-ray it?

Guffaw.

I've seen wheels in a lot worse condition get repaired.

WTF did you do to it????? (yes it is by the look of it, how deep are the marks??)

yeah that should be repairable looks like surface damage only?

LOL, I looked over my shoulder to get into a left lane. But there was a reallly high curb on my right, and I drifted across a bit. So hence me curbing my front right (driver) wheel.

Luckily it wasn't on my new wheels that I put on today.

Yup, surface damage only.

 

[Fred@BTM]

yeah we can fix it depending on how deep the scuffs are
