If it can be repaired it can be repaired for about $100....see Ye Ole Wheel Shoppe in Laurel, MD (actually in Elkton, but there you are, somewhere on Route 1 N above US 100).

If the wheel is dented it's probably out of round and needs to be straightened, too....they weld on aluminum and remachine it and polish and repaint it.

There are differing discussions about the resulting metallurgy and safety of the repaired wheel but I've had great results from them over the last 15 years or so.
