Default HELP!! Need to Fix rims...

I need to know if anybody know a place to fix rims.

I am talking sorta like recondition since the lips were practically "eaten" by the curb-barrier during the accident and need serious surgery on them.

Anything information would surely help.

BTW, the rims are Volk Racing LE-37 w/ polished lips (18*8.5 and 18*9.5)
Thanks everyone

I saw an ad in Car-N-Driver magazine in the back (advertising section) that there is a place that you can send your wheels in for repair/reconditioning.

Would fixing the rim damage the performance/reliability?

As far as I can recall, these are forged rims and they were created as one solid piece. So if I rubbed the rims on the concrete wall during the accident, would they be able to re-LIP the rims?

Thanks for your help.
