hey i'm interested and sent your pics to a wheel repair guy and here's what he said:
Do you have some better pics of the damage so I can firm up the cost to repair?
I'm going to assume that this wheel is not only broken but bent as well. To straighten an 18 inch wheel costs $100.00 and to weld up that area would be a bit more then our $75.00 minimum. It would likely be closer to $100-$125 to weld that up. HOWEVER... being that close to the front-side of the wheel, the paint will VERY LIKELY bake as the welding heats up the surrounding area. This could be anything from a slight discoloration to a completely burnt-to-ash situation. And then again, the paint might not be bothered at all. But I'd almost bet that welding that close to the face-side of the wheel is going to have some effect on the paint.
