If it's not obvious, the only way to tell if a wheel is bent is to put it on a high speed balancer that has a runout gauge (Hunter) or slowly spinning it on a balancer while using a micrometer.

In case you're looking for stock 19s I just commented on a post in the classified section. The guy is selling some 19s with blizzacks. He's in Rome, NY (not too far from NYC). Good guy and the wheels looked mint (tires are like new). I happened to buy the intake and exhaust in the post (hence I got a chance to peek at the wheels).

Good Luck and hope you figure out a solution.
do we have forged wheels on s6 with 20" black optic package? I managed to bend front wheel in first 3 month (no potholes here). before I drove m3 for 7 years with no problems!
