If the pothole bends are a "soft bend" on the inner side of the wheel, they can be repaired. Even some bends on the outer portion of the wheel can be repaired and refinished. Usually, it will only cost $100-$150 per wheel to fix.
To help cure this problem, check your tyre pressures. You shouldn't be running below 35 psi in the front. I would recommend 38-39psi.
If this doesn't help. You can always buy a set of BBS RKII's. :-)
Cheers,
Brian.
