how much does it piss you off when u find another scratch on ur rim(s)?
So i bought rims like 6 months ago and have done everything in my power to make sure they don't get knicked/scratched. but I have come up empty handed. Somehow I still find a lil mark here and there.

I guess I have to just bite my tongue and accept the reality..


well at least it was only 1G for everything.

So what do you guys/girls think about the scratches?

Do you find you have the same problem... and what do you do about it?... if anything

I find it easier to drive a stock car It's so nice not to care about little stuff here and there.

But yes, I used to get pretty upset.

I usually don't care if I see a scratch on my wheels.

Are we in the middle of the great Ramblings migration of 2010?

Like when geese fly north after the winter?

When's it over?

Then again, I have stock wheels. If had a pair of aftermarket wheels I'm sure I wouldn't take it as lightly...

I get more pissed about people opening their doors into my car than I worry about scratches on my wheels.
