Great solution. I do lots of paining my advice would be to use masking tape on the tire and rim above and below the sanding area.

Wow! I’m impressed!! I just got my first curb rash on my 22 GT today.. only 20,000 kilometres 😭 It was worth it though.. my dad had to go to the hospital and he comes first.. (he is ok by the way) I’m gonna give this a shot later on in the week.. looks like a great and easy fix! Luckily the part of the wheel that got curbed was silver… the black part never got any damage. It shouldn’t be too hard… it’s machined silver for me so I assume sanding it down and then maybe adding some clear coat may help? Might be easier I don’t need to paint it.

my wife has had her M3 for 10 months and 3 wheels have curb rash. even though on paper the treads of the tires (235/45R18 = 9.25 inch) are similar width of the wheel (18x8.5 inch), the side wall angles in from the rim of the wheel to the tread, which causes the rim of the wheel to stick out further than the side wall. my sportage sx doesn't have curb rash b/c it comes with 235/55R18 tires where the side wall bulges out a bit. and also the factory wheels are an inch more narrow @ 18x7.5 i've heard of some M3 owners going with a wider 245 tire after they wear through the factory tires.

they can go with a smaller wheel and larger tire size. even though on paper the treads of the tires (235/45R18 = 9.25 inch) are similar width of the wheel (18x8.5 inch), the side wall angles in from the rim of the wheel to the tread, which causes the rim of the wheel to stick out further than the side wall. my wife has had her M3 for 10 months and 3 wheels have curb rash. my sportage sx doesn't have curb rash b/c i run 235/60R18 tires where the side wall bulges out a bit. and also the factory wheels are 18x7.5

The sad thing is going on tour is the largest income creator for groups now due to streaming their music. Album sales revenue are basically non existent. Now seeing a band on tour is not even real! This is a terrible look for musical acts! These groups depend on ticket sales and t shirts and merchandise to make a living! Why would you pay huge prices to see these groups simply act like they are doing their music live!! Im completely shocked that people will fall for this! I will never go to a concert again for these prices!!! It’s ridiculous that you can’t trust what you’re spending your money for!! Thanks Fil

Guys dont do this you will have crazy overspray and it will start peeling from the sides because there is no sanded area for paint to stick to. It might even peel in the sanded area because he didnt even clean properly after sanding. Also you will get tons of overspray on your fenders like this. Maybe will last a few months but not a good repair at all.
