Anyone know where to get bent rims fixed in the Philadelphia/ New Jersey area? How much do you guys pay to have rims fixed?

Try your local tire shop, they may be able to recommend someone. I found a guy that was close to me on Yelp. They were $95 to fix a bent rim and another $20 if you need them mounted/balanced. $100-$120 seemed to be the going rate in my area. One of my rims was cracked and it was cheaper to just buy a refurbed oem rim on eBay.

I go to ABE Wheel Repair, near Allentown. Depending on the damage it's usually about $85 while you wait. However, after 8 in a year and a half I just went with aftermarket rims.

Don't know of any place in your area but bent rims are plentiful in Michigan. I had two rims repaired at Detroit Wheel and Tire for $125 ea with me bringing them in. They also sell refurbished rims as well. My local tire shop wanted $225 per rim with them doing the R&R of the rims and they had to send them out to get them straightened. I just hit a couple of pot holes yesterday with the LF wheel, (probably bent again!). .We have third world roads around here!
Good Luck,
Bob

I check Las Vegas specialist and their pricing starts at $150.
I am considering to replace 18" wheels on W212, that come with cracks, with 16" I have extra for W211. More tail swag, but at least I will not grind my teeth over each street cover and in 20 years of driving MB, the only time I bent 16 rim was when distracted, had to do panic braking, while steering into shoulder pothole.
