Gen5 oh god, jumped the curb again

okay so my driveway isn't built straight, for whatever reason it's like curved on itself, and today while backing out (at night mind you) i ended up going over the curb on the right... now i examined the wheels quickly in the dark, and they seemed to be fine, and i didn't notice a vibration (though i only drove for a few minutes), but please tell me, in your humble opinions, what do you think the chances are that i could have bent those two rims?

There is a slight chance, you may need an alignment as well if you notice the car pulling to the left or right. Have a closer look as soon as you get the chance.

Doubtful that you bent the rims. You're more likely to bend them by hitting a pothole than you are by jumping the curb. Jumping the curb will put more force on your suspension than it would your rims.

Glaring blue HID bulbs are NOT classy, and don't make your car look nice, no matter what that kid in the Civic told you.
