Alloy wheel kerb damage is a common concern for car owners in Mumbai, especially in busy areas like Andheri and Malad. This damage can not only spoil the look of your vehicle but can also lead to alignment issues. Understanding the difference between cosmetic damage and alignment risk is essential for maintaining your car's performance.

What is Cosmetic Damage?
Cosmetic damage occurs when your alloy wheels scrape against a curb or other obstacles. This type of damage is primarily aesthetic and may not affect the functionality of your vehicle. However, it's important to address it promptly to prevent further deterioration.
What is Alignment Risk?
Alignment risk arises when the impact from kerb damage misaligns your wheels. Misalignment can lead to uneven tyre wear, reduced fuel efficiency, and compromised handling. If you notice your car pulling to one side or experiencing vibrations, it may be time for a wheel alignment check.
Signs of Alloy Wheel Damage
- Visible scratches or dents on the wheel surface.
- Vibrations in the steering wheel while driving.
- Your car pulls to one side during driving.
- Uneven tyre wear patterns.
