Hi, yesterday i took a turn in the snow a little too fast and hit the curb, it seemed ok so i kept driving, then i got to I84 and the steering wheel began to shake so I went back home to look at the front right tire, i then noticed that my rim had chipped a little. Do I need a new rim? or does the wheel need balancing? HEEELP!!

That's more than a little chip... certainly beyond repairable. You'll need a new rim.

Look on eBay....if you're lucky you might find the same rim. I agree too...don't drive on that rim...you're looking for trouble.
