Bent Wheels

I have a 95 Legend and the Acura dealer just informed me that 3 of the 4 GS wheels I bought are bent and need to be replaced. It is not economically feasible to pay over $200 for used/reconditioned wheels.

I was looking at the tire rack and they have Rial, Sport and Kazera wheels in 16x7 size, each at under $140 or less. Any info on which of these manufacturers are any good. The 16x7 Kazera looks good, if only because it has the highest offset, 50mm vs 42 for all the others. I know the GS wheels are 16x6.5 and 65mm offset.

Suggestions?

Thanks in advance.

PS.

What do i do with the GS wheels and the original 15" wheels I have? Where is a good place to sell or do I just take them to the dump?

The bent ones are good for "nothing" scrap maybe.
The ones that are not bent can be sold on ebay for approx. $20 each if they are not scratched up.
