Does anyone know how much it costs to straighten a steel rim, and places that do it?

I have 9 GT rims, a few of which need to be straightened out. Only minor stuff....no major curb hits.

My memory lets me down but off Sunnyholt Road Blacktown, there is a street (Berrima ?? Bessema ??? ). Down that road is a suspension, tyre type place. They machine the tread off tyres for Appendix J and HQ racers and i am sure they also have a rim roller. If not then they know who has.

I took some rims there a few years ago for a mate (Peter Dane) who was racing HQs at the time.
It is right down the end of that road.

I think the street you are referring to is "Bessemer Street" (just about 5 minutes from my place)
