Split rim straightening

Anybody have any experience of getting aluminium split rims straightened? a quick search on the net throws up loads of companies that will sort out kerbed Merc or similar super bling wheels but nobody that does racing stuff. Just after a service that straightens a big pile of buckled rims, don't necessarily want to see my reflection in them afterwards

Ian Jemison. Based near York and does a lot of alloy wheel repairs for rally teams. Haven't used him but his website is very informative. Worth an enquiry.
