No "insult" or curb contact. That separation is on the inside or backside of the wheel, away from curbs or contact of any kind. I'll double check the face tonight, but I don't recall any indication of damage or contact to the face.

Garth--didn't that wheel suffer an 'insult' there, i.e. it whacked a curb or something, and was bent slightly?
