Curb rash on rear right wheel-Grrr

Anybody know of a place in NJ that does such work. Or I was thinking of just leaving it and using the these 18" wheels for 18" snow tires instead of getting new wheels with 17" snows when the weather turns. Is there a big difference in snow traction beween 17s and 18s. If there is then I will go with the 17s and maybe fix the 18" wheel, if not I will just put snows onto my 18s which came with the car and care less about potential winter damage.

Just not paying attention when parking. You guys with AWD don't have the same snow concerns as us "summer tire" guys who MUST do something before the snow comes.

Call your dealer. Most dealers have specialists that come to their locations regularly. These guys can do the repair without removing the tire from the wheel. They'll charge you around $75 for the repair.
