there is no way to cure curbing as far as i know.

Only way to make it less noticable to my knowledge, would be to sand down the burred area and then get them recaoted in paint.

don't forget to get them balanced after that

think i could use jb weld to fill in some of it?

only option i know of would be to take it to an alloy wheel repair facility. we have a place locally called wheel medic, and a few others that do some good work. it can get quite pricey depending on the damage sustained, type and finish of the wheel.

ew that'd prob make it looks worse.
I guess if you filled it in then somehow got it to mold to shape then sanded ect .... ehh just to much work man.

Thats what I'd suggest as well. Other than that, just sand it smooth so it's not as noticeable with the scrapes then take it to be rebalanced.
