If you’ve scraped a wheel against a curb, the first question is always the same: what’s this going to cost me? The short answer — most curb rash repairs run about $95 to $250 per wheel. Where you land in that range comes down to a few things.
What you’ll typically pay
- Light scuffs: around $95–$125 per wheel
- Moderate gouges: $125–$175 per wheel
- Deep, chunky damage: $175–$250+ per wheel
What moves the price
Three things mostly decide your number:
- How deep the damage is. A surface scuff is quick; a gouge that’s bitten into the metal needs filling and reshaping.
- Your finish. A solid painted wheel is straightforward. A machined/diamond-cut or chrome-look face takes more work to match.
- Wheel size. Bigger diameters — 20", 22" and up — cost a little more.
Is it worth repairing?
Almost always. A repair typically costs 30–50% of a new OEM wheel and is usually done the same day, versus waiting days to order a replacement. Beyond looks, deep rash exposes bare aluminum that oxidizes and spreads — so fixing it protects the wheel.
