Curious if anyone would know what the worse that can happen when your backing in parking and your rear wheels tap the curb? A tad more than lightly

 

might just ding up the rim a little. MAYBE pop the bead on the tire/rim if its hard enough. (assuming ur parallel to the curb).

if not parallel, prolly just a nice bang/bounce, MAYBE a misalignment in the rear if its hard enough and ur unlucky

 

thanks for your help...how would i know if there was a misalignment...would it be visible? It was a tad harder than a touch nothing too hard >< i think...

 

if it were misaligned you would know when you drove. it would pull or vibrate like crazy.

were you parallel to the curb? or backing into it?

 

Have the rear links checked they bend very easy.

 

i was having a cranky morning and i backed in a little more rushed than i normally would...my alignment is a little messy but nothing very different yet. Any other symptoms?

@Tech: am i able to check the rear links myself or would i need a shop to do it? Sorry i am pretty green.

Thanks guys

 

you are able to check the rear links on your own. just pull off your rear wheel and look at them visualy and you will prolly know
