Ok, wheels are bent pretty bad, im having trouble finding a place to actually commit to fixing it.

First off, their 2 17 x 8 Regamaster evo's...

Second, its not the lip thats bend, but the hub (i guess you would call it)

the centricity is off, way off. its shaped like an egg (only much less dramatic)

So can anyone help me find a place to get them un-bent? PLEASE HELP

thanks guys

i dont think any wheel place would be able to repair forged wheels...i may be mistaken though...plus your damage sounds a lot more irreversable...all the structural integrity of the wheel is lost...from what you described...

In my experience you won't be able to repair that. Structural damage to the center of the wheel is impossible to repair without forging or casting a new center.
