Rim repair in the Lehigh Valley-- PA....

i just got my blizzak ws-50's in the mail.... in good time too, it snowed today... anyway, i'm mounting them on my stock wheels....

anyone know a good (& inexpensive) place to get one of my rims "unbent"? it was slightly bent just before i used them last... also... how much to get them all buffed out?? my main priority is to unbend the one wheel tho.... anybody know of anyone?

problem at all if i ride with the one bent?

seems like they only do exchanges??? i guess that means i have to give them my wheels and get other ones back.... i left them a message, i'll stop in in the morning....

any other suggestions guys??

edit: they also repair them....$75-$150 normal to repair a bent wheel?

I never used that place, but I hear they do great work.
Not cheap though.

They ARE literally right in your backyard though Yuppie.
That’s a big benefit.

You definitely don't have to exchanges. They will repair your rims and return them to you. Great place. I was going to use them to repair my Racing Harts.
