Billie, have you checked my thread over on the tires section? I have 3 bent wheels which correspond to the three wheels that have curb rash. The one that is bent beyond repair has the worst rash. The other two not so bad, and not bent as bad. All done by the previous owner.
Not sure if these wheels are that delicate or I am the victim of just plain old fashioned bad luck. Funny thing is, the car never vibrated at interstate speeds or lower.
It was the RF tire that was cupping that started all this. At any rate, based on my experience, it would be worth looking into. Happy motoring!!
