Centerline; as in aluminum??
If so, you don't fix a bent aluminum rim. It's a doorstop now.

Dude, you can take 4lb sledge hammer to a steel rim to bend it back in place.
But you can't do that to a alum. rim.
Once an aluminum rim is bent, it's over as far as I'm concerned.

There are a few places I have seen that will repair them, but don't anything about your area. Some manufacturer's will repair their own rims. I would contact Centerline and ask them.

I thought that forged aluminum could be repaired but the cast jobbers are toast when bent???
