the rim isnt cracked or anything its just bent (hit a HUGE pothole going pretty fast..)

so is there anyway to get this fixed or am i screwed??

 

3 options.

a: take the tire off and try hitting it with a hammer to get it back into shape

b: take it to a shop that repairs rims (probably $100 fix)

c: drive like that till it destroys your tires

 

sorry for the double post my internet is being all jacked up

 

well option A & C are outa the question so how would i find a place that fixes rims.
these rims are the real deal so theres no way i'm gunna beat the hell out of them with a hammer NO WAY. and i dont intend on driving it much untill the weather starts getting better in the spring. so i have the time to wait and save up to get it fixed.

would i have to go to an aluminum specialist or sumthin?

 

there are a lot of sites on line that do wheel repair here are just a few

just google it there are a ton of them

 

ok thanks instructor!!

 

hitting an aluminum rim with a hammer just cracks them. spend the money like listed above and do it right

 

option B is the only way to go....
oh and i would drive it with that wheel on anymore.

 

Deffinitely take it to a shop, dont let on that it is a expensive rim or they will over charge you.

 

Not always. I went through a large pothole with my old wheels on and bent 2 of them on the inner lip. I was able to have them hammered back without them cracking.

I agree though, I wouldn't do this with a nice rim such as the OP's.

 

wtf have you done to that rim it looks horrible

nice rims i hope they can fix it and make it look new without a hammer

 

geez...does it look THAT bad? or were you just saying that my rims look bad in general?

 

put a sludge hammer to it with the tire on with no air in the tire, get 2 sludg hammers , one resting on the rim and the other to strike the other one resting on the rim

 

lol ur crazy man, NO WAY i would do this to these rims.......
they cost me about 2100bucks without tires.
i'm having them professionally repaired
