Woodrow;
Your best bet is to Google wheel repair and talk to any cos. near you.I know a few places in NJ but I dont think you want to come up to the Socialist State of NJ.

Ye Olde Wheel Shop, 6363 Washington Blvd., Elkridge, MD 21075, (800) 526-8260, (410) 796-8400.

I think they were good enough to have an article about them in one of the "racing" magazines back in the day. I had an outstanding experience with them.

There might be a "Mr. Wheel" franchise in your area....the Indy area shop did fine work for us, back when I had the need.

Woodrow, before sending your wheels out to get straightened, I would talk to someone that is knowledgable regarding what kind of stress you put on the wheel when you bent it and what kind of stresses you will put on them when you try to bend them back into place. Think of the amount of force and stress you put on the wheel just in a single pass at the track. I am assuming the wheels aren't that bad if you are trying to repair them but, I would definitely consider the safety factor; it may not be worth doing it.
