A: 99.9% of all bent or damaged wheels come from a significant road hazard or impact. Wheels are made of metal not magic. While its always frustrating, a significant impact to a wheel can cause it to bend or become significantly damaged. We build our wheels to exceed industry standards and safety is always our number one concern with any wheel development. After such an impact we recommend inspecting the wheel and then bringing it to a local wheel and tire shop to have it inspected for safety.
