The bent rim issue.

I got a 18 inch Damani rims from my friends. After I put the rims in, I felt vibration at certain speed. The two of the rims are slightly bent inside when I checked. I don't want to throw them out. Are they possible to fix? Or buy two brand new one? Anyone has the same experience?

Thanks.

There are places that can fix them. I would be wary though if they are in fact "bent" it would probably require a barrel replacement and at that point I would just get different rims. Have you tried to get them re-balanced?

The wheel repair shops are found. I will contact with them, and then let you guys know about the repair charge.

Thanks.
