Usually, for the damage that brings most people in. Straightening a bend or welding a crack on a bare wheel is $200 for the first repair, and you keep a wheel that already matches the other three. A replacement has to match all of them in diameter, width, offset and finish, and on a staggered set, where the rear wheels are wider than the fronts, there are two different wheels to source. What does it cost? See rim repair cost, with every confirmed price.
Repair stops being worth it when the wheel can't be made safe. A crack through a spoke, the hub or the mounting face, a wheel bent in several directions, or aluminum corroded all the way through is judged case by case, and if it can't be made safe you get an honest "replace it", with the reason shown to you.
Cosmetic damage is a separate decision. Curb rash and a tired finish don't make a wheel unsafe, so fixing them comes down to looks and resale value; curb rash repair is quoted per wheel from a photo.
Factory or aftermarket: tell us what you have
Most factory (OEM) and aftermarket wheels are aluminum alloy, but they aren't built the same way. Most are cast; some are flow-formed, where the barrel is spun and stretched after casting to make it thinner and stronger. The way a wheel is made, and the finish on it (painted, machined, two-tone, polished or powder-coated), decide how a repair is done and what the refinish involves.
So when you send photos, add the brand and model if you know them, the size from the tire sidewall, and one shot of the finish in daylight. Brandon will tell you straight what can be done with that wheel.

Just hit a pothole or a curb? Check these
Four quick checks tell you whether the wheel needs looking at, and give a quote something real to go on.
Tire pressure, for a few days
Check it daily for a week. Losing pressure with no puncture points to a crack or a bent lip that has broken the seal.
The inner barrel
Shine a flashlight behind the spokes. Impact cracks tend to hide on the back half of the wheel, out of sight from the curb side.
A new shake
A vibration that wasn't there before, building at highway speed, is the classic sign the wheel is no longer round.
Photos, before anything else
The face, the lip and the inner barrel in daylight, plus the size from the tire. That's enough for a straight answer on whether it can be repaired.
