Just wanted to put my experience out there.
I rented from SIXT at Berlin Airport.
Received the keys and went to the parking garage where a wet BMW waited for me. Drove it to my hotel. Found out it still had food in the folded rear seats, but I didn't complain. Cleaned it and kept going. Most of the time I walked around and enjoyed the city.
Fast forward, end of my 2 week trip, I return the rental. 2 weeks later I receive the photos you see. <10cm scratch on the rim with a $1200 repair bill.
I know for a fact I did not do anything where I can say I damaged the rims. $1200 is a full set of rims. Also, i never dealt with a company included rim scuffs as other than wear and tear. Never will go through these folks again.

Well, a free advice: stay away from sixt Portugal also
Obviously the company is being totally unreasonable here, at least as far as I can tell, but are you saying you rented a car just to drive around Berlin? The city has an excellent public transportation system; and for getting too and from the hotel with luggage, taxis would surely have been cheaper.
