Default 2008 Honda Civic - dX-g - RIM question....help

My 2008 Honda civic dx-g model - I noticed today some scratches on the RIM.
Not sure if the RIM is bent. They are OEM RIM.
Dont know how did it happen.

Is it bent? if yes is it safe to drive?
does it affect my tires?

That is likely from rubbing against a curb while parking. It appears to be only cosmetic damage.

Thankx mk378 for your reply.

Is it bent? how do I find out myself?

If just cosmetic, is it safe to drive, will it affect the tires|?
