my dumb ass hit a curb the other night, but there is no noticable vibration under 60mph. on highway speeds, however, the car shakes pretty bad, and the steering wheel vibrates even worse. although i didnt look too closely, there doesnt seem to be and visible dents to my rim(s) on the passenger side. is there anything i can do myself or anything an auto shop can do for relatively cheap that will fix the problem. im guessing its just a very slightly bent rim.

well the verdict is that the front right rim is slightly bent and the rear right rim is very slightly bent. are there any common shops that can repair wheels? if not, what is the cheapest/best online place? thanks ahead for any input.
