I got 2 bent wheels on my 01 330i. They are the Style 73 20 spoke PITA wheels to wash....
Anyway, new wheels are about $350 each, but many of the reman places sell them for about $160ish. At that price, I could get both replaced for the price of one new one. I can keep one in the trunk as a spare(1.57mm bend), but the other one is 1.91mm bent, so that one is pretty bad. The car is an 01, so the other wheels are not exactly mint condition either, I'm just curious if anyone could recommend one of these reman places, or should I just get 1 new one and keep the lesser bent one as the spare?
I've found:

And a couple other ones, but it is hard to find any customer feedback about these places. :dunno:
Here is a new wheel:
