Buckled wheel

I've a buckle in my alloy-its causing the tyre not to seal.
Is it a new alloy I need or can it be repaired?
Its a 22" supersport-if its a new one I need anyone got one?

Agree with Ady Thumbs Up
Wheels/tyres are the only thing that put you in contact with the road, why would you risk them. I carry my family in them and for the cost of another alloy ~ £250, is it really worth it Wink ON THE WAY: BMW F21 M140i

All depends how bad it is. I've repaired buckled wheels on my 911 as do a lot of the race teams and have no issues at 170mph plus. I think popping around town at 30mph in the range is ok.
