Curb a Wheel
Is it possible to curb a rear wheel but cause no damage to anything else? Wife was turning in a parking lot and curbed the driver side rear wheel. Car drives fine. No pull and no vibrations but worried there are unseen damages to axle, rotor or any other parts.

If its just minor contact its fine. Hopefully she didn't ram into it at 50km/h.
Doesn't hurt to get it checked up on. Good luck! |

You might have the tires misaligned after it.
I noticed my front tires getting bald recently - turns out they were misaligned. There is no damage to the wheels or tires, but yet they got misaligned somehow. I am guessing could be due to a minor hit like in your case. |
