Wheel Repair - Input Requested

I just found out that both front wheels on my 63 are bent; one more than the other. Are they repairable and if so, does anyone have a recommendation for repair places in So Cal (OC or IE)?

If it is not adviseable to repair, where would be a good place to start looking for new ones? I have chrome and prefer to stay with that option. I appreciate your input.

They are definitely repairable if they are still drivable...I bend at least one wheel every 6 months...usually faster...

For bends, LAX in East LA is the best...

Ask for Ivan. The only thing is you have to dismount the tire from the wheel. Should be around $45 to fix the bend and $65 if you want to have the lip repaired from any curb damage. Sometimes they will do both for $45 if the bend is not too bad.

WheelsAmerica is also very good. Alot of us P-Car guys use them for factory refinishing. Buena Park is probably the closest to you.
