So my wife kindly dragged the rear wheel over the surface of a nice kurb today.
Wheels have been on the car less than 2 weeks and I'm absolutely devastated to say the least.

Can't believe it

Ouch.
Are they diamond cut RS6 wheels?
I did similar in my 2 day old A6 a few years back.
Cars are there to be driven, these things happen to the best of us.

Are those the 21s? If so how are you finding them (apart from the kerbing obvs!) in terms of comfort and handling?

Needless to say I dropped the wheel off this morning to be repaired. I couldn't live with it like that
