That was a nasty hit, not just some scratching along...
I would only have that repaired if the company uses x-ray technology to check for micro-cracks.
IMO best to throw it away...

I'd be wary of repairing a wheel that had that much damage. Some people will say it's ok, but I wouldn't take the risk.
It may look OK and hold air, but there's no way of knowing if it'd be as strong as it was originally - and I wouldn't want to find out that it wasn't!

I've found that life I needed.. It's HERE!!
I was in a meeting the other day being showed some wheel repair equipment. Can use penetration die on the wheel. 3 stage set that will highlight hairline cracks and damage
