To make a long story short, lets just say I got a little out of control on a very bad drift, and here is the aftermath. Tire is gouged a bit, and the rim is a bit bent and cracked.

Whats the likelihood that someone could repair this, or will I be needing a new wheel? Also since either option will cost a **** ton, do you think I can get away with driving on this till I get the money?

Don't take it personally, but I wouldn't trust driving on that. My life is worth more than $200. I think ebay is your friend in this situation.

A quality shop may be able to repair that, but I wouldn't expect it to ever balance our correctly. The integrity of the wheel has been compromised once it cracks, it's just a matter of how well it is repaired. I'd also just buy another wheel.
