Got a bent wheel. Possible to straighten?

Previous owner must have hit a curb, slight bend in wheel. Looses air at about 5 lbs per week. Can this be straightened or is it a good excuse for new wheels? Along that line I have a '90 NA Z as a wheel donor, get new ones for that one instead of the Max. I'd like to see a pict of Max with stock Z wheels if anyone knows one. Tried search too.
