No chance on getting the bend fixed ?

I couldn't tell you how many wheels we get fixed at BMW. We have a guy come Almost every day and sadly our wheels are anything but cheap, just soft with a mix of an unforgiving runflat tire. Generally a stock wheel starts at 350$ for a 16" think an alpina b7 wheel was 1000-1250$ ea.

If you wanted we coukd road force and measure rim runout with the balancer I have at work. It's incredible what that machine can do to minimize a vibration from a bent wheel, shifted belt or just unbalanced tire. Will almost pin point the issue and spot

If you get it back and still feel it and want to go over all the wheels and tires thoroughly let me know
