Hit a pothole on the highway!

Bought this vehicle not too long ago. Ran through a pothole on the highway and now this is what I'm seeing! NO leak or vibration whatsoever. Should I get it fixed or replaced?

Also, what is the exact wheel name? Link to purchasing a new one? How much am I looking at?

Definitely get it fixed or replaced (might be fixable). At the very least it'd also need to be rebalanced.

This is the 799M style wheel in black. If it's the front it's 9 inches wide.

Based upon what I can see of the brake caliper, it's a rear wheel, correct (front wheel is 19x9, rear is 19x10)? If so, the part number is 36118091764. If it's the front wheel, part number 36118091763 applies. It typically runs between $725-$900 depending upon where you buy it. Do a Google search on that part number to see what your options are.

However, I believe there's a good chance your wheel can be repaired.

Had a similar thing on a 4 series. The wheel was put on a balancing machine and the warp showed up as red on the screen.

The wheel was sent for repair and came back balanced. No idea how they did it or what the cost was as the dealer got it done under warranty…..some how 🤷‍♂️

I had that happen in a mall parking lot with a previous car. I had to get the wheel and tire replaced. I hate 19" and 20" wheels!

Definitely check with a wheel repair shop.
