Rim repair HELP!
Wondering if anyone here locally does it, and what the average cost is (as in is the cost to repair worth it)?
I have 2 17" Konig Element rims that need reheating/bending/balancing to get straight again. Was by Brighthouse Field, part of the shoulder was missing from the road, and my rims suffered at 35mph because of it. I DID NOT see any cracks in the rims, just bending thankfully!
The bends are on identical sides, front and back, of the rims. The back rim does hold air but is bent. The front rim is leaking air at a good speed. The tires are actually and suprisingly OK. I would REALLY like to get these fixed and back on my car since the tires are practically BRAND NEW. If you DO fix rims, PM me an estimate if you could (from the pics if possible). These things are kinda heavy so I'm trying to not carry them around. Again, it's only on TWO rims.
Here are some pics to give you an idea.
