Here is your options. Fix the rim = $ Find another stocker replacement in a bone yard = $. Which is cheaper is the way to go.

If you got an aftermarket, probably cheaper to fix

I think these both repair rims for around 75 bucks. Obviously see if they are near you, or try and find a new or used aftermarket rim somewhere else if cheaper.

If THAT is the case, I wish you could find at least one TSW Hockenheim R wheel for me...

Alright man, I'll see what I can do for ya! I go to work next on Friday, so I'll get you pricing for it. I'll try my hardest to get it for the cheapest price! I'm guessing you want it to be a chrome 17" wheel, correct? I was looking at your website and I kinda figured it out? lol

When you bend a rim they could fix it but they are never the same. They aren't as good as before. My friend bent his once and got it fixed but afterward they just kept bending from the smallest thing.
