i would not recommend fixing them, almost impossible to straighten once "out of round"
Rythems are discontinued but you can find a better looking newer wheel cheap

Reimbursement takes forever, couple years ago I got a bent rim going through a pothole in Boston, and took them about half a year to process my claim and mail me the check.

You're from CT, however, I would give Wheel Collision a call in Allentown PA (800-292-7467) I've had 4 wheels fixed at Wheel Collision over the past two years. They pic up wheels in Philly, but you might be able to ship yours to them. Check em out for more info.

WHEELS AMERICA. They have fixed my Axis 19" rims (with lip) about 5 times thanks to the superior road quality here in NJ.

They do an awesome job and its only about $115/per wheel and they do it FAST.

The website is http://www.bentrim.com or just look up WHEELS AMERICA. My last wheel I acutally sent them was so ****ed up all that it couldnt even hold air. They fixed it beautifully, I couldnt even tell where it was bent!
