Hey guys, im in Grand Rapids, and i was driving thourgh the S-Curve and something fell off a truck and i swerved to miss it and i ended up hitting it.. The "dent" is about an inch long and just appears to be the lip of the rim taht is bent... I dont think anything else is, and my tire still holds pressure.... Does anyone know anywhere taht I can get this fixed?

You have steel rims correct? Just take a mallet and fix it! I smashed a pothole once in my old car and did the same thing. Took it to a tire place to see what should be done, the guy took a wooden mallet and hammered it back to shape. Never had a problem after that.

I'm an idiot, I didnt read your sig Ehh, in that case It might still work, but wait for some more knowledgable advice concerning a wooden mallet vs. machined aluminum.
