Default Bent rims

I have a set of nice but used rims that was given to me with my car. I finally got tires for them and had them balanced and found when I go over 60mph the steering wheel shakes, I took them somewhere else to look at the balancing and they told me that I have to slightly bent rims. Does anyone know if this is bad to drive on or if theyres any way I can get them fixed? Or am I better off buying new rims?

well when a car shales it will mess up the belts and such on the tires so yeah I would recommend getting a balance that sets the bend off a little. a good balancer can do that.
