As long as the wheel never touches the curb, I don't think anything will happen to them.

only if the wheel touches the sidewalk but the way you explained seems like you hit them directly so it wont curb them that way. But you rub the lip or face once on the sidewalk then yes will be curbed.

it wont do any damage unless you were going about 25mph but then you would bend a rim, not "curb" it, but you stated you would be going slowly. my question is... "why would you be driving up curbs on a daily basis?" just seems kinda odd

to get in my garage i have to drive up my sidewalk.

my buddy had ssr comps and the lip on them got bent. he told me it maybe was caused by
driving up his sidewalk everyday. - i did a search on ssr comps and i found out they bend easily for a semi forged wheel.

i know it may be a funny question to some of you, but i just need clarification.

you have a garage but no drive way???
in either case, slowly driving shouldnt do anything. inch up to the curb, stop, then get over it, dont just run over it without stopping, maybe thats why your friends rims got fucked.
