Those rims (and tires) aren't cheap!

Hardly worth filing an insurance claim...

Im not sure if your dealership offered it to you, but when I bought my car I got lifetime road and hazard coverage for the rims. Say if you hit a pothole and dent them, chip them, scratch them really badly, so on and so fourth, the way it was explained to me is the road and hazard coverage would replace or fix them for like $40. I may be wrong but this is the way it was explained to me and what I understood when I read the contract for it.

But make sure you included that coverage in your warranty, if not then yea it's gonna be out of pocket and prolly not worth it.

That warranty does not cover curb rash.

Around here you deductible is typically $500. It won't cost $500 to get that rim repaired.

When the other party is at fault, it is. They pay the deductible (at least in Oklahoma), and you won't see an increased premium...
