Angry Places to get Rims fixed in Houston?

So i'm drivin down one of H-Towns fawked up streets, and this big a$$ hole comes from nowhere, lol, the lip of my rim bent pretty bad and now air is leaking out from between the tire and lip .
Anybody know any good places to get my rim fixed? I payed like $650 each rim w/out the tire so i want quality work cuz these rims were too damn expensive. Any suggestions and prices?

The mulit-piece C4 Racing hart is a 2 piece design. It differes frm the old C2's and C5's.

Experience the Type C4 for yourself, With the new two-piece construction, the Racing Hart Type C4 wheel uses a unique assembly method to match the centre with the outer rim section, thus creating the deep-dish appearance.

Maybe wrong but goin by what the websites say.

Actually, he's right. Multi-piece C4s are 2 piece. I've been looking at them wheels for 2 straight weeks now. I've came across enough websites that say they're 2 piece.

Here's one example: http://www.wholesalehyperformance.co...rt_wheels.html

Scroll across the selection of wheels. C4s come in 2 piece and 1 piece designs.
