08grey is right. once you get all the black off, you wont really notice.

and honestly, i dont think thats a curb because of the black. did the truck happen to go through a drive through wash like 08grey suggested?

It happens, get over it. So what are you going to do when one of your kids drops his skateboard and it put a nice ding in i? how about if one of your kids is sweeping the driveway and during his backstroke the end of the handle hit the rear gate and dings it?

In the end, its not worth trying to put blame on someone and hurting a relationship.

SHIT HAPPENS, GET OVER IT!

Thanks for all the replies.. It always good to know that others are in your same boat...

This thread and its replies have made me feel better... That AMG wheel scrape must have been hard to bear....

I will try the rubbing compound and get the black off.. Shouldn't be too bad.. Very good idea

LIFE definitely does happen!! Thanks all I feel better...!

I thought it was the car wash to at first glance. But there was dirt all over the tire... I had to wipe and clean the tire off of all the dirt.. Then all at was left underneath...

I would rather my wife come and say... Hey by the way... Your probably going to be pissed... But.... I bounced off the curb today and tore up the wheel... Im sorry... My bad....

That would probably make me feel better than finding this out on my own

True.... Just tried some rubbing compound... That black stuff is no scuff marks... Thats the outter coating of the wheel peeling off... Looks worse now :(

Women can't drive for shit, no matter how much they disagree. My wife has done up her wheels on a granite curb, and that's an ugly ending..

I almost had a heart attack when my wife said she took my duallie through the McDonalds drive thru. Very small, curbed entrance there.

I told her that I'm going to call my lawyer if the wheels are curbed, and that the judge would certainly understand and side with me..
Haha, somehow, the wheel gods shined down because she didn't hit a thing.

Guys, our women are going to mess thing up, and we are here to fix them.
