Viggen Wheel Questions - Winter / Straighten in MA/RI

I have two questions w/ regards to Viggen Wheels.
1. Anyone have experience with either the 16" 7-spoke BBS wheels or the 16" split three-spoke wheels wheels from Saab? I am looking to purchase one or the other for a set of winter wheels for my '99 Viggen. I like them both, might prefer the three-spoke because they look more "Saabish". They will be mounted with Gislaved Nordfrost II's.
2. Anyone know of a place where I can get a Viggen wheel repaired / straightened in MA or RI? This past summer I hit a piece of plywood in the road (unavoidable) and cut a tire and bent a rim. Thankfully I had another rim that I could use. While I have the winter wheels on, I may have someone inspect and repair / straighten any bent wheels. I know the paint cannot be matched, but hopefully this won't be an issue. Is this cost efficient, or would I be better off with new wheels? I like the double three-spoke, but think the original wheels look best - just far too soft. At this point probably just looking to repair the existing wheel(s). Thanks.
