As soon as you notice that your car has a damaged rim, it’s best to avoid driving for a number of reasons. The first one is the fact that you will only cause more damage to the rim. When the rim is already bent out of shape, driving places it under greater pressure and this is how more damage occurs.
Another reason not to drive with a damaged rim is the fact that you are putting yourself and other road users in danger. A car with a damaged rim experiences poorer handling and this can lead to an accident. The tire will also experience uneven wear which affects the tire pressure too. Blowouts are a frequent result of driving with damaged rims.
