So I encountered a yard timber in the middle of the highway, and...
What is this going to cost me? Both driver's side wheels are bent.

 

Holy shit... that was the mother of all holes

 

That was no pothole. That was an A-hole. An A-hole who doesn't have enough respect for other's safety or property to secure his load of lumber on an interstate.

 

Damn does your rim even hold air. good a rim repair shop I'm sure they'd be able to fix that

 

I'll be damned if they haven't lost a single lb of pressure. I had to drive home on them for 3 hours after hitting the lumber. They rode without any problems and didn't leak at all. I pulled over to check the pressure and look them over every 30 minutes along the way.

No one has any idea of the repair cost I should be shooting for? I just want them straightened. I can handle polishing and refinishing myself.

 

50-150 per wheel

Thanks guys. The damage was pretty bad, so I had a little bit of trouble finding a shop that wanted to tackle it. Luckily, Atlanta is definitely not lacking in wheel shops. The repair is $140/wheel and $40/wheel extra if they have to repaint the hubs after heating the hell out of the barrels.

 

I'm really surprised it didn't ruin the tires as well.
