Bent my rim. Repairable?
I got into huge pothole and my one rim bent, I think. The tire became totally flat and left my car there. I tried to put air at gas station, but it doesn't work. You think it's repairable or should I just get new tire or new rim? I don't want to send my rim to get it repaired. Does Midas do that?

I just put stock rims back on for now. The rim doesn't look bent when I closely look at it. How can you tell when it is bent? It seems like the tire has a hole inside or something. Should I take it to local shop and ask them if it is bent or not?
