Bent Rim

Anybody know where I can fix a bent rim? I hit a pot hole last week and another one a few days ago. I know for sure that one is bent and possibly another. Any leads on where I can have these fixed? I live in NJ. Also on avg how much can I expect to pay for each rim to be repaired?

Is it bent or chipped/scuffed/gouged etc.? What's the exact nature of the damage? Tough to get a badly "bent" rim alright again...not so with the other types of damage. Where in NJ are you so I can tell ya where to go? There are places that'll do a core exchange on a truly bent rim. Probably better off keeping those for your winter shoes and go for an up-graded set of kicks if ya can swing it. JBX

The damage is that the rim does not spin true. In other words it's warped!

Anyway I am in Jersey City and I am looking for something not too far within 20 miles I suppose.

Well the only place I know here in FL is a place called TURBAX. I had taken a bent chrome rim to them a loooong time ago, and they got it up to 99% original. I think that's pretty good considering the rim is bent.
