Just wondering what you guys think, if it's safe to drive. With some googling it seems that if its a minor bend, it'll just cause some shaking and vibration. I had just bought this car and so I never noticed this when I looked at it. I only notice some vibration at medium speeds like 40mph. But at highway speed 60+ mph its totally smooth. The tire is very firmly on the wheel still, it's not losing air or anything, etc. Is this a big deal? I wouldn't mind replacing the wheel eventually but I was wondering if this would be fine to put off for maybe another few hundred miles of driving (combination of city and highway). I feel safe when driving overall, just some slight vibration at medium speeds.

The excess vibration can cause excessive wear in your wheel bearing and front suspension components.
You may find a wrecked 2010 Toyota Corolla in a scrapyard. I replaced my 1999 Ranger's take-me-home tire with a full-size spare tire I got in a salvage yard for only $30, if I remember right. If I ever get a flat tire, it'll only be an inconvenience.
