When you say its "bent", do you mean that just the lip part is bent and its a cosmetic issue? Or do you mean its bent out of round and you have a wobble issue. If its the later, I would just buy a new rim. If its the former, you might be able to clean it up with a little work. Check for a recent thread by jdog. He did some nice work cleaning up the curb rash on his rims. You will have paint matching issues though.
