Default Rim replacement

I have a 1995 Acura Integra (white) which is going to finally get fixed after being wrecked in December. However, I have been told I have "two bent rims" and was wondering about the best way to fixing the problem. The guy who balances and rotates my tired for me said it was probably due to under-inflation, but I just don't know for sure. I know I could just buy the two additional rims again and keep the tires and do it that way, but since they got bent in the first place I was thinking that I might be able to swing the extra money and just go with another brand. I got the Team Dynamics Pro Race 1 (white) rims ( http://www.teamdynamicsracing.....htm )because they were the lightest available within my price range at the time, so the same thing really applies but I just want to make sure there isn't like some new, great-looking rim (white in color) that I'm missing that is within my price range (around $500 max for 4 rims that are 17x7).

I'm open for any suggestions, so thanks in advance.

There are shops that specialize in reparing bent rims. Look in the phone book to see if there are any in you area. There are also a few that are national online establishments, you just ship the rims to them. First take pics of how badly they are bent so they can give you estimates.
