I have been advised that once a rim is fixed it is never as strong as it was originally. I am not sure if that is true, but I have heard it a number of times from seeminly reputable sources. The problem is this, unless you buy a brand new rim, you have a good chance of purchasing a rim that has been fixed. In that case you are best off fixing the one you have.
All that being said I have had rims fixed and the result is ok. My Saab has a slight vibration in the steering wheel, but after all I have read and tried I believe that is just the nature of these vehicles.
