i have 17" Tenzo Shu rims. one of them got bent pretty good, putting a bubble in the tire. i am replacing the tire and did some "home maintenance" on the dent in the rim... The guy at Belle Tire said that I shuld be able to drive on it just fine, but that over time it may cause a problem with the tire... Any input?

 

There are companies that do rim repair...find one close to you and take it to them, they should tell you your situation and repair it for you if it is repairable.

My advice is if they say they can't repair it, dont try driving on it.

Haha don't trust a tire salesman to tell you if your rim is safe to drive on...he wants to sell more tires

 

I would say just buy 1 new rim & use the bent rim u fixed as a spare.
