It wasn't a bad method (you said yourself many others have done it this way) it was your tools...use MAP gas (yellow tank) in your torch (It burns hotter) and use a bigger hammer. I feel like you were afraid of breaking the rim... Dont be scared to heat it up... bring it to about 180° or so and dont be afraid to really wack it! It wasn't a "love tap" that bent it, it wont be one that "unbends" it LOL basically don't be afraid of breaking the wheel... after all, it's unusable as it is, it will be unusable if you fail to straighten it and it will be unusable if you damage it, so what do you have to lose? If you're successful you'll save yourself some money, if you fail or it breaks you've only wasted a little time.... Hope that helps someone. 👍

I have a very small crack in 1 of my rims on the sedan in the same location on yours.

Use a different kind of gas your using copper, (plumbing) use the MAP yellow bottle!! Gets a lot hotter. Best of luck to you!!

my rim is bent too like yours, Where do you buy 4 rims for $150?

Bro I have a question if you can tell me your opinion about this.... So is it worth to tix bent rims? Is it really possible? I really want to fix my car's 3 bent rims but my brother is telling me its better to buy brand new ones. If its possible to fix them and worth it, I will do it because new ones are crazy expensive and my Rims are like GTR rims.. unfortunately they are bent and cause steering wheel vibration and I can't drive car 100KM. Or even 80km/h will appreciate your feedback 🤝

you need to heat aluminum to 400 degree C, not F. Google aluminum strength vs temperature.

😂😂😂you don’t know how to do it! You don’t need that jack and that temperature in your hand 😢 all you need just heat it up when it smokes jut use your hammer and it’s done
