I'm going to try to file a claim against CalTrans but need some advice from you all. Should I try to get the wheels repaired or just buy new ones? Does repairing the wheel reduce it's life-span or driveability, is it safe? If wheel repair is safe,[B] can you recommend any reputable shops in the greater Sacramento area?[B/]

Most wheel repair places run at least 120/wheel when a repaint is necessary, new Rotas aren't that expensive, and the classifieds are always full of used sets......
