hit a pothole are these a done deal

From the number you posted it looks as if you're in the Houston area. If so, go to www.mywheelrepair.com The only thing is they are a middle man or so it seems since everytime I took a damaged wheel there, they drive it off to another location to have someone inspect and give a quote on fixing it. I haven't been able to figure out who they let do the repairs. They are located at 5524 Richmond Ave.

If the wheel is just bent, then just look for a wheel repair shop that would be able to try to bent it back. Keep in mind that this would not be as good as it was, and balancing this wheel will not be perfect. This means that if this is your front wheels, then you will definetly feel some vibration while driving. On the other hand, if the wheel is bent and cracked, they are able to bent it back and try to weld it. Throughout time, the weld will cause a slow leak. If there is a crack I would try to just get another wheel. Hope this helps, GL....

Actually a lot of places would not do this kind of work because they don't know how to or do not have the proper equipment. They also wouldn't repair it if were unsafe. Speaking from experience, it's perfectly safe. Been riding on that rim for about 2.5 years now. Tires and Rims are two different things.
