Does anyone know if they charge for things like that at the end of a lease? I'm debating putting the spare on there and the curbed one in the trunk. Will they hit me for having a worn spare as well? I've never leased before.

Is the lip bent or is the wheel just scraped?

Depends on the severity of the damage.

Its decent but not horrible. I'm def thinkin about swapping the spare in. But idk if wearing the spare matters.

You should be fine, unless the Wheel is Bent or Really Messed up, we don't consider it excessive damage, Normal wear and tear is a part of a lease.
Small Door Dings (Usually any thing smaller than a quarter is a good rule of thumb) and wheel scrapes aren't unusual.

post a pic, but i'm guessing that the other wheels will have some marks within the 2 years!

I would do it... but I'd swap the tires too so at least the scratched rim would have a new tire... so when they lift it to see if the spare is there... they'll most likely just check the tire wear
