Like when trying to remove or mount a tire. An amateur's attempt.

You can't Magnaflux alloy wheels, only steel rims. You could do a Penetrant test for any cracks open to the surface. With the cost of X-ray it would be cost prohibitive, just replace the wheel.

Penetrant and Magnetic particle testing are for surface indications only, X-ray and Ultrasonic testing are for sub-surface indications.

The damage to the rim should not pose a problem, but that's a 5 year old tire(July/09), or maybe was old stock.

I'm thinking like a few others, could be from mounting. I know mine had some marks right off the show room floor, but on the rear.
