Had my front tyres replaced this morning for the first time. Car is 4 years old and 13,000 on the clock.
Now I only use the car back and to to work so I park in the garage at home and car park at work. I dont park by kerbs.
Yet just put my car away now and noticed one of the alloys looks like it has been kerbed yet I'm convinced I haven't done it. Only cleaned it a couple of weeks ago so would have noticed it then.
I can't prove it but it must have happened this morning. Has anybody come across this before? Is it possible to cause that kind of damage by changing a tyre? It's not just a scratch, the metal is grated approx 6 inches in total.
