    How would you repair deep gouges and scuffs showing bare aluminum?

    Asking for a friend who didn't learn his lesson the first time...

    Deep enough to need weld? Weld, grind, polish, clear. Keep the scars small, but make em bright. You earned it.

    Find one of the rim repair guys that the dealerships use and they can fill and paint them.

    People that hide their flaws are the worst.

    Sharpie markers do a reasonable job for the person on a budget.

    Love my Racelines, saw your pic and said, "How'd he get in my garage?" Had to jump my truck in a comp to stay on all 4's, bent the rim on the inner bead, luckily the MT sticky was still good. Brought it to the local wheel repair shop and $100 later I was back in business.
