So I was taking my brother-in-law out somewhere for a spin. Wound up needing to go to an industrial park area, truck moving towards me at a brisk pace, so I moved in tight as I made the turn. Quick rub and caught the passenger rear wheel lip. Some scuffing to the wheel.

I don't want to take the wheel off the car and send it somewhere, but is there anything simple that you can do yourself to fix this while on the car"

TIA,

Scott

Try this link: www.bmwtips.com/tipsntricks/ wheel-repair/wheel-scuff-repair.htm. I just used this method to repair one of the wheels on my wife's Merc. It worked well but took some time.

Check out this link on Audiworld. Home wheel repair performed on a 996 C4S. All materials are readily available on-line or possibly a local tuner shop.
