Default Cost to repair bent rims?

Just wondering if anyone has an idea what it costs to repair a bent rim? I am bringing my rims to Redline on Northern Blvd. Need them to remove tire (not from the car) , fix rim, remount tire and balance. Just wondering what I am looking at per rim. (this is for a 16" rim btw)

Thanks!

that place is ridiculously overpriced.
i brought 2 wheels there and they wanted 80 each to fix a small crack in each, a member on here did it for 40 dollars combined iirc.

Re: Al's Hubcaps, do you just drop off and pick up at another day? Or is it same day service? And does he stand by his work?

I called Redline , they apparently have another location in Brooklyn by the piers. They're charging me $100 to fix 2 of my bent rims (16" BBS RXII's) which includes mounting/balancing of tires. Is that a good price?
