Tire guy shows me the inside edge has a significant dent outwards. Still seals. Just dropped it off to be straightened.

What kind of road hazard must I have hit??? I swear it's been driven on smooth surfaces and never a pot hole I can think of.
I am sure it was not a a small furry creature

All seriousness aside, you must have hit something, maybe some road construction? could have been a rock in the road

In any case, unless the wheel is really badly bent, you should be fine after the repair. Make sure they re balance it, preferably with a Road Force balancer
