Depending on the finish on your rim you can try this idea, even tho its not really the safest idea.

Wow that actually looks legit.. I think I will do that just throw the rim on the back so I can have it constantly spinning thank you for that awesome link!!!

Call the folks at Turbax. Used them a few times for both OEM and aftermarket rims. Excellent results.

I rebuilt a dodge viper a few years ago and the wheels where bent, slammed into the curb bent! I sent them to texas. The phone # Is 1-800-used-rim. I dealt with them on oem stuff when I was in the bodyshop business, It was around $600.00 to have 3 wheels redone, 2 were bent so bad you couldn't bead the tire up on and one was scuffed similar to yours. Give them a call.

most likely cheaper to buy a new rim. We use 972-242-tech. Place is called wheel technologies
