    my friend wrapped duck tape/any good tape thats thick around his tyre levers and it worked (just be gentle and it should be all right)

    Make peace with the fact that it's a dirtbike and it's gonna get scratched.

    If you're not OK with that then don't ride it.

    Sharpies work great to hide the scratches.

    what colour are the rims
    cause in my opinion black rims are the easiest to hide scratches 8) 8)
