POTHOLE THAT BENT MY #)(#$%ING RIM!!

So, I head out today..deciding to finally wash my car due to the lull in our famous Oregon weather.

I get into the parking lot and heard a thump tick thump tick, I get out and my front passenger side tire is FLAT, I'm talking NO AIR. so After about an hour Les Schwab comes out and fills it with air, I drive over to Les Schwab thinking its a tire problem, they point out a nasty dent in the wheel (due to idiots driving with chains and breaking 82nd ave.) So, This question has been posted multiple times, But does *anyone* know of a place in portland that can fix a bent rim? And how much is this wonderment going to cost me?

Preferibly somewhere that can unmount the wheel, fix it and get it back on there for me.

please help! :doh::doh::doh:

good luck with that, my old rims that i purchased in july of 06 which were akuza tarizons, was discontinued when i tried to get replacements when i cracked them in may of 08, so i opted for the akuza belle, but i tried to get 3 replacements and they only had one left nationwide, just a heads up.
