Sorry to hear about the wheels. I bent a Motegi TrakLite on the ACR on 165S after hitting a small but 3 pavement layer hole and the air bled out from the bead. The bead cracked where I tried to repair it myself. The wheel shop in Hville really did a great job and Mig welded it and straightened it. They are $300 each and hard to find so I had it repaired. I called a couple of places in Bham and they didn't seem too interested and asked me to bring the wheel to them. Good luck and hope to be out there tomorrow.

Alloy Wheel Repair
Well, I hate to interrupt this current cat in the hat, or stig in the pig routine but I just wanted you to know I had Jason at ALLOY WHEEL REPAIR fix my 2 bent BMW wheels and they are fixicated! I then took them to AUTOWHIZ to get them balanced up and the looked great on
the balancer. Very little lateral runout and no up/down oscillations. Balanced easily.
Great work and minimal hassle. I'd recommend the service to anyone needing straightened
wheels.
