I wouldn't ever take the chance of driving on a damaged rim. You don't know exactly how bad the wheel is damaged structurally and that's just too much risk to drive on.

Don't repair, buy a new hoop from Mackin (who imports Volks). Thats the marvelous part of multi piece wheels. Repairing wheels is not smart, it weakens them.
