Besides larger sidewalls looking meaner and sexier, the potential damage issue is another reason I try to deter folks going with low profile but to each his own.

so an update i manage to contact a few shops that are willing to straighten the rim. some say that the paint will change due to the fact that their going to heat it up to straighten it some say the paint won't change. i'm kind of confuse here.

Take it to one that says it will not change the paint, get that in writing, let them repair it and see how it goes.
