Look up wheel repair places in the yellow pages. Take your wheel to one of them and ask.

My guess is that is a bit too serious to weld and roll straight, but I am no expert, and alot depends on the alloy used (how brittle etc).

Yes repairable... I have repaired rims that have been gutter bashed so hard like 4 inches of the outer section was broken off..

If you get quoted over $80 tell em to get stuffed... Seriously would take about 30mins to fix that rim.. at the most.. With out machining..
