Those can probably be fixed at a reputable wheel shop for ~$100 apiece. Good luck!

i dunno about repair on that one...theres a 4inch gash (2nd pic)...wouldnt that require welding to put back together and itll never be close to as strong as it was. im filing a complaint with the dot and keeping my fingers crossed.

wow, that is pretty bad. My Hiros have taken quite a beating, over some REALLY bad holes and cracks and ridges, i guess it just has to be hit just the right way and thats it. sorry man.
