@Terratoss rims do changed shape caused by pot hole , impact ,mount curb generally.

i  believe there is a Life span of wheel due to fatigue or detonation but how long ? could anyone share Thankyou.

as for your what ever workshop claimed or who ever encountered why not simply as to show or spin on the machine and convinced you? 

tires uneven wear and tare are usually caused by out of balanced / shock absorbers /emergency braked (wheel locked) also Poor quality tire etc

choosing a Right tire service provider or seller many usually use the price to determine where to go .

Yes, rims can change shape or warp over time due to factors like impact damage, corrosion, improper tire mounting, manufacturing defects, and extreme temperatures. Regular maintenance and cautious driving can help minimize the risk of rim damage. If you notice issues, have the rims inspected by a professional.

Oui, les jantes peuvent changer de forme ou se déformer avec le temps en raison de facteurs tels que les dommages causés par les chocs, la corrosion, un montage inapproprié des pneus, des défauts de fabrication et des températures extrêmes. Un entretien régulier et une conduite prudente peuvent contribuer à minimiser le risque d’endommagement des jantes. Si vous remarquez des problèmes, faites inspecter les jantes par un professionnel.

The most common reasons we see for rim shape changes are accidents, excessive heat from the braking system, and manufacturing defects or corrosion. After an accident, the rim's shape often needs to be realigned to fit the tire properly. Excessive heat generated by the braking system can also cause rim deformation. Additionally, manufacturing defects or corrosion can lead to changes in rim shape. Keep an eye on these changes to ensure a smooth driving experience.
