Default Bent Wheel Repair

Hey guys, so I was shown by Auto Innovations that two of my wheels are bent and I was wondering if any of you know of a reputable shop in the San Jose area that would be able to fix two bent oem ap2v2 wheels (one front and one rear) for a good price?
Thanks,
- Vereak

Wheel Techniques in Santa Clara. Looking at around $150/rim to fix a bend.

A bit pricey for a bend imo. Memory fab does a full restoration for $120 each, (powdercoat, bends, curb rash). I would shop around..

So to clarify, $120 for fixing curb rashes, bends and to powdercoat them again?

Yes, they charge a flat rate for all of the that. Not sure if they can charge cheaper since it's just a bend. Unless you want to powdercoat your wheels a different color..

Do you know if the bend is on the inside or outside?

I am not too sure where it was bent. I was just shown that the wheels were bent while it was on the balancing machine. But if it were to be my best guess, I would say on the inside.
