Exclamation Do you think we can save these SSR's?

A good friend is cleaning out his garage and is about to throw these out. I told him not to because they might be able to be fixed, and if so I will give him a few buck for them. There are NO cracks. All of the scrapes and bends are on the lip. These are some expensive SSR Evo rims which I am trying to save. Does anyone have any I idea if they are repairable, and who can do it? Thanks for your help!

you should be able to buy new hoops for the wheels they look like 2 or 3 piece wheels as long as the centers arent messed up ....

They are a 3 piece, but you can't buy jusst the hoops for some reason. I called a rep for SSR.

Recon: contact Don at American Wheel LLC, he is local to you (Metairie) don't have the number at hand, but American Wheel is listed in the book. He can probably fix those wheels for you, no problem. He's doing a set of WEDS Autobahn wheels for me right now and his work is outstanding.

they can be fixed as long as the actual center of the wheel is not bent.
