What I'm saying if you don't want to bang your wheels up on kerbs, you can easily adopt the driving skills to avoid doing so.
I don't like the appearance of aggressive rim protector side walls and I don't drive into kerbs to need the rim protection. Consequently, I prefer a tyre with the least aggressive rim protector sidewall.
In relation to Bridgestone tyres, the S007A (below), didn't have rim protection anywhere as aggressive as it's replacement the Potenza Sport.

Don't think anyone bangs their wheels deliberately.....But it's there just incase and personal choice if you choose that style of tyre....
Have a read of this.....Seems a few want to try protect their rims other ways as they admit they might scrape a kerb
