Try Graham Berry Race Cars in Upper Hutt.

I had some 15's straightened the other day. $65 each. That was for fixing buckles though, not scratches but think they do that too.

Haven't tried the wheels yet..hopefully they did a good job!

Rimright if you want em looking like new.
Graham Berry if you want them round / machine the lip @ $65 a pop.
Ive lost count of how many sets of rims Ive takenn out to Graham Berry's so far..

P.S no one can do anything about cracks.

what about that firm in auckland ? dont have the URL handy on my laptop at home, got it at work though, they advertise on their site that they can fix virtually anything, even have pics showing rims with cracks right through them.

Im pretty sure most companies wont try repair a cracked spoke, its too risky.
1988 KE70 Wagon - Slowly rusting
1990 NA6 MX-5 - because reasons
2018 Ranger - Because workcar
1997 FD3S RX-7 Type R - all brap, all the time
OMG so shiny!

take it into an engineerng shop round palmy that does alloy welding. And ask them if they could weld it up for ya. But they would most prob say yes but its at ur own risk.
