You have to take it to a shop where they will put it on a machine that heats up the warped rim and straightens it. However, you can try to take it to a garage where they will use a rubber mallet and heat it up and try to pound out the dents, but that is risky and you can crack the rim.

Warped rims can be fixed by taking them to a professional wheel repair shop where they can use specialized equipment to straighten the rim. In some cases, a slight warp may be able to be fixed by heating and reshaping the affected area, but it's best to consult with a professional to determine the best course of action for your specific situation.
