edge of wheel gouged by tire dealer 200 1993

Had to get new rear tires the other day and spent the morning at local Bridgestone/Firestone shop... had to wait awhile cause they said their tire machine broke down. Then I notice after I get my car back that about half the outside edge of my stock rim has major gouge all the way around it. It's like it got stuck on an edge while they were mounting the tire and the 'broken machine' scraped it back pretty badly. You can see where the metal's been pushed and scraped back and left bunched up in a spot on the rim.. Pisses me off! It's like they don't treat the car carefully just because it's an older one not in pristine shape...
