You have a tire/wheel warranty from when you bought the car? They'll usually pay for aftermarket wheels too, mine does.

They told me that was if you hit something that wasn't suppose to be there. A curb is supposed to be there is exactly what she said lol

On a related note, I have some minor curb rash on my stock Brembo rims (thanks to my little brother!). Does anyone know where I can find some stock paint for these?

I bought a used Expedition a while back with 22's, the tire and wheel coverage covered them. I took them off though because they looked like shit but the coverage follows whatever wheels are on the vehicle. This was info from the dealership I used to work at, but I could see how people would get some damaged wheels cheap in order to warranty them and the dealer try to protect themselves. Either way, it's worth looking into

They don't need to know what you hit, maybe you were in a construction area and there was a block of concrete in the road...

Call up Grapevine Ford and see who they use, they had a wheel of mine fixed and it looks great.
