I am debating whether to repair my Enkei wheels or replace them. Does anyone have experience with wheel repair services?
Is it feasible to repair a bent wheel, or is it a case of 'once its bent, the strength is lost' and potholes will continue to bend the repaired wheel?
Thanks in advance for all opinions!

Re: Repair or replace wheels?
I repaired my RPF1 with a bent lip (still holds air, just looks horrible). It's my track wheel so I always inspect them like I do with brakes and fluids.
So far so good. Wheel balances good without extra weights and the new finish made my other 3 look like trash.
