bent rim?
So Im on the way home and a cat jumps in front of my car. I swerve to........ you know........ not kill the thing, and I end up banging against the curb. Rims look not so good anymore! Ever since, my TMPS light comes on once every a week and the rear left tire is low on pressure. Im washing my car today and notice that there are small air bubbles coming out from one spot between the rim and the tire. Does this mean the rim is bent? Can I go at it with a rubber mallet to fix the problem? Any input is welcome.

there are places that can straighten out your rim...try your local tire shop. they probably know someone in the area that provides that service. they can even fix your wheel if there is any curb rash on there.
have a tire shop remount your tire and they'll find out if it's bent or not.
