The silver is just the plastic wheel trim. Mounted curb avoiding a car pulling out from the right earlier...
New steel rim time?... Getting the tyre checked at same time.
Check the inside of the wheel too
Is that a split in the side wall?
IANATF, but... **** reusing that wheel.
It'll be reet.
Bent a steel wheel on the Doblo a few years ago on a rocky track.
Old school tyre place knocked it back into shape and it balanced perfectly with a new tyre.
I'd be less worried than if it were an alloy wheel
I would check if the local tyre fitter would be happy to hit it with a big hammer a few times, balance it and swap it with the spare. Assuming you have a real spare and not a space saver or can of squirty foam
Hammer and a bit of paint and it will be good as new.

Bloody foam is the "spare".Lol
[goes outside and checks wheels on 12 year old Royal Mail van outside] You’ll be alright.
Yeah big hammer and that'll be fine
Aye the beauty of Steel wheels is that you can bash that back into shape and it will be fine for 1000's of miles yet :o)
hit it with a hammer.
Thanks guys!👍
