rims
 

any way to repair bent rims? and dont say replace them

Absolutely. There are a number of rim repair places around the country that can fix mildly or badly damaged rims.

I have used this place two times when my rims were chipped during a tire change:

1-888-4-Fix-Rim (Wheels America) - Roundel Advertiser ($109 per rim lifetime guarantee, Dallas, Houston, New York, LA, San Francisco, San Antonio, Chicago, Miami, Philidelphia)

Wheel Collision Center (www.wheelcollision.com) - Roundel Advertiser

No affiliations, just trying to help . . . . . .

I had Wheels America repair some wheels for me, did an excellent job.
Depending on the repair and type of wheel, there is also Weldcraft Wheels, http://www.weldcraftwheels.com/ I haven't used them personally, but have read good things. Good Luck.

you guys are awesome, maybe i wont have to shell out my savings to get new rims. i just have 2 rims to unbend and all 4 to repolish hopefully the full job wont be too expensive compared to new rims.

BMW,
Do some net searching...I'm sure you have some decent wheel rim repair joints
somewhere in the metro NY area. Can't be hard to find.

Also, a lil' sniffing on some other car boards, for responses from NY area local guys,
should turn up some choices...or, you can ship them to a place rec'd here.
GL,mD

well my main concern was to make sure that its possible. and/or recommended and it seems like some here did repair theirs which gives me confidence. with that in mind i'll look up some of the places linked here. Thanks everyone

BTW.... I still think Vegas is the true "city that never sleeps"!! Tough to find a club open in the wee hours of the morning on a weeknight in NYC...... ;)

lol are you still on that
