looks like its the outer edge, which is fairly easy for most shops to fix. If it was a center bend, your wheel might not be perfect again. Sorry to hear about bro, i can feel your pain

Sorry to hear that. But you know, I was just thinking this morning about having nice wheels up North. I wasn't sure if it was worth starting a new thread, but I can't see how people up North have such nice wheels with low profile tires. The roads suck!!! I'm in Chicago for a couple weeks and the roads here remind me of NYC and growing up in Pittsburgh. I guess it's the changing of weather and the salt trucks that do the roads in. Well, I'm living in South Florida now and I barely see potholes. A few months ago I did hit a small hole. I pulled over and everything looked good. 
I also noticed most of the BMWs I'm seeing in Chicago are X-drives. I assume Canada must have more X's than rear too????
Well - I hope the wheel is a easy fix.

My Ride: 2006 530xi. Deep green with beige interior. 6 speed manual. Premium package.
When I bought my 2008 CPO they offered the "tire and wheel insurancs". Gave me 5 years for $1000. I know never buy the warranties, but my last car went through 2 rims and 4 tires secondary to pot holes. Cost $200 per rim on a pontiac. But the inconvience was the kicker.
So I figured pay the $1000 and now I know I will never have a problem.

Ah man, that sucks dude. Totally a "no win situation" here. Hope you get the rim fixed or even swapped quickly. Good luck homie, just hang in there. Peace out from Nor-Cal...
