Anyway I hit it hard and severely dented my FR wheel and nicked my RR wheel.
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, can you recommend any reputable shops in the greater Sacramento area?

I digress. The reason Rotas are good for the street is if you did this to your BBS/Volk et.al. (and they would have been screwed too) you would be looking at $1K - $1.5K to replace. Rotas will set you back $300 + shipping. Buy new ones, these gave their life for you and got ya home safely!
Bummer ~ but it happens all the time right?
