Hi, I was wondering, if there was a curb damage to the edge of the alloy from the pic below, can that affect the handling during 70mph+? I was told that it can make the car shake? Is this true?
Also can this damage be easily fixed? and that when this repair has done, it will be like new again?
Thanks :) Dan
