    Hey all, yesterday as I was driving around I somehow managed to hit the gutter and buckled my rims and pop my tyre. Well I got my rims fixed and new tyres today and now everytime the rear wheel spins I near noises as something is scraping. I looked around but can't find anything out of the ordinary. Thanks in advance.

    Checked your wheel bearings?

    Usually when you hit a gutter hard enough to buckle rims, its more likely than not you've done more damage than just a rim.

    If I were you, id just disassemblr the entire problem area....but thats just me.

    ...
    well like someone said youve prob damaged more than just your rim.

    the wheel bearings would be a good place to start.
