Default Anyplace in the Chicago, Milwaukee area to fix bent rims?

I bent two of my kahn rss 18s on these fine roads. Anyone know of a place to fix bent rims. They are just flat spots on the inner part of the rim. Nothing terrible, yet I can feel on the freeway. Thanks

Default I am sending a 17" celeb wheel to them today. I hear they are good..

and with a 24 hour turn-around. I hate driving around without a spare. They are at www.fixrim.com $109 is a good deal since my wheel is bent and scuffed to hell.

Default yeah they had a special a year ago for $250/all 4 wheels to re-finish. Good work on my buddy's rims.

Couldn't do anything with my Moda R6s however, because of the high-gloss finish that they said they couldn't replicate. It would've been a duller silver finish and I didn't want that. At least they were straight up with that when I went there.
