hit a pothole

i've got 18" konigs with falken 451 tires. i was driving my gf home when i hit a huge pothole. my front right rim is bent and cracked. luckily it was my really messed up one that i was going to get a replacement anyways. i want to order just the rim, because i think my tire is still okay. if the tire is bad, then i will get a new tire. what do you guys think? new rim only or new rim & tire?

That sucks! Have the tire removed from the wheel and check the inner sidewall to see if there is any belt separation. However it's highly possible that you may need to replace the tire. Good luck.
