I'll have them take a look, I find it hard to believe the wheel was damaged as there is zero vibration at anything other than high G's to that direction. I feel like a bent wheel would be felt at normal driving conditions. I did notice there was a very slight scrub mark on the inside of that LF tire where I pulled it back onto track over the back of the curb, but it's extremely superficial to the eye at least. I understand it could have some internal/belt damage or something though so we'll get it checked out.

My current plan:
  • Purchase/replace the bent aluminum subframe brace
  • Replace the rubber aero strips under the splitter that I trashed
  • Take the car to 3R again and have them check alignment and suspension components as well as the wheel bearing on that wheel if possible
  • Have 3R check balance on all 4 track wheels (factory wheels/Goodyear 3R's)

Just put my street wheels/Michelin PS4S on and the car drives perfectly straight, zero vibrations of any kind, but again I can't exactly pull high G turns on the street either.

I would not expect the warranty to cover damage due to my lack of driving skill, either.
