If you lightly knick a curb at higher speed, I think you can end up with a similar damage. If you knick a curb at lower speed, you naturally react to pull away from the curb. But at higher speed, you won't be able to react that fast if you didn't see it coming.

I'm a service manager at a Porsche dealership. I have a wheel guy that does all of my cars and does phenomenal work. PM me and I will hook you up. Your wheel will be perfect.
