SEATTLE AREA:Fix minor bent rims??
Hey guys. So I bought a set of 17in rims awhile ago and when I went to get them wrapped in new tires, the shop told me that they couldn't get a perfect balance on 2 of them cause they were a little bent, but not bent enough to leak air or anything and would cause a little shaking. They do cause some shaking on the steering wheel after 50mph, not as bad, but does get annoying on long drives. I don't have money to buy new rims and the rims are discontinued. Does anyone know any shops in the seattle area that re-bend rims into shape? I saw you tube videos of shops doing it, but I don't know any corner tire shops that do it since bigger tire shop companies want you to spend money on new rims and they wouldn't "suggest" them to get repaired. If so, is it worth it, and how much?? I'm also willing to trade them for some b15 se-r 17in rims, but I keep the tires.

I've had bent rims repaired at Dependable Wheel Repair in Renton a few times. I've paid $125 - $145 each time.
