i was driving home yesterday and had an old lady ( sucha nice gal lol ) point out to me that my wheel in the back was wobbly.. hmm so i get home, jack it and she was right... weird thing is i couldnt tell the diff driving with a bent wheels... no shaking or weird noises from the back axle

wheels are 15x8 eagle alloy 187 with 3.25 offset with 32x11.5 bfgs, good thing i have 5 of them so the bent one will serve as a spare now

my question is what can cause such a severe damage to the wheel? i inspected the wheel and it has no signs of any damage or crack or whatever

also can this rim be repaired?

Video was there before. Now it's gone. But you didn't miss much. It had low production values and a predictable plot line.
 
have you tried swapping out another wheels to make sure it is not the axle that is bent? aluminum wheels will bend, but that looks more like a bent axle or uneven mating surface.
