I am not sure what scrubbing the inside of the wheel will do other than clean it. The "bent" part is on the inside.....thought that was obvious from the pic. </div>

The bend is so slight I hope to hear/read that it is not enough to worry about. </div>

One: does this look like it is bad enough it needs to be dealt with? (the other wheel is just about the same)</div>

Two: I have a guy who says he can do the work (he was working at a production body shop my company deals with) and says he can do it without taking the tyres off. Does not taking the tyres off sound right? </div>
