Good rim repair shop

Very vague question, let me help you.
Stock/Aftermarket rim?
What size? (width/diameter)
Forged or Cast?
1, 2, or 3 piece?
Type of damage? *Does the bend have a crack?*
Fixing a rim is like plastic surgury, you can't call in to get a quote. You'll always have to bring the rim in, to get a valid/actual quote.
Understand that once a cast rim has been bent/out of round, the chances of it returning to new status is like trying to straighten a crushed aluminum coke can. You'll have better chances withe a forged multi-piece rim.
Post pics, and I'll be more than happy to help you find a shop!
