Bent rim

Well, i was changing my oil today at work...when my car was lifted on the rack i noticed that the inside of my front right tire was kind of bulged out. So i took a closer look to find that my rim is bent. Im was extremly pissed at the fact and was wondering if i had any other option other than to buy another rim. Just wondering if anyone else has experienced the same thing?

i've bent rims before. You can usually get them fixed as long as their are no cracks. If there are cracks you need to ditch it and buy a new wheel.

look up in your phone book or even the recycler. Or maybe call up a local body shop and see who they recommend. If not there are places that advertise in the back of car mags that you can send it to.
