I have a quick question to the forum. I recently was told that 3 out of my 4 wheels are bent. These are the OEM 18" style 124.
Also to note these are my winter wheels I have 20" wheels I use during the Summer.
I wanted to get some opinions on what to do.
Should I buy new wheels from tirerack or some place
Get my current wheels repaired around ~$100+ each.
or Use my 20" wheels all year round and drive my SUV during bad weather.
I figure if I have to spend around $100+ to repair wheels I might as well look for new wheels.
Thanks

Also I live in Seattle, so I am not worried about salt too much, and one other thing I want to spend around $100 per wheel. 
One other thing has anyone put on 4 18x8 on a e60 with a sport package? Any problems doing so?
Thanks for the replies so far.

I bought my 550i last winter and in order to get through the remaining winter months, I put my old E39 18x8 BBS RK's with 235/40-18's on the 550i (with proper centering rings, of course). Worked fine even though the tires were a bit smaller than spec. 18x8's will work fine.
