Is there anyway to fix a rim that has been dented? I have Falken Torque 5's as pictured below:

Any feedback would be great.

Well post a picture of the rim. You can fix bent rims to a certain extent.

if your rim is bent as bad as this, forget it. buy a new one.

Both the wheel pictured and your wheel Vic can be fixed. I have seen worse wheels be fixed.

hey vik, there are a buncha local wheel repair shops around. the good ones take a lil bit of time though. you might want to see how much a replacement rim cost and see how that compares to getting the bent rim repaired and the amount of downtime you'll have.

That is correct..you just have to call around locally to find someone that can fix your wheel. Though sometimes...its cheaper to buy a new one rather than the repair cost of the dented wheel.
