Don't hit on it. You must heating it up and pressing that out. If you hit it you stretch the metal and it can crack.
But hammer fixes all!
I know somebody that repairs big expensive 24s, 26s and what not so I'll see what he says. In the mean time its not really bothering me.

Sorry I put this in lounge didn't want to put this in a year specific forum since they are GMT900 wheels on a GMT800. Idk lounge seemed like the easy option 
No problem with me if it is in the lounge but I just had to know. Maybe General Discussion?

Just get it straightened at a rim shop. I had a similar one, but on the outside, and a rim shop took care of it. I waited, and it took less than 45 minutes, and they also dismounted and remounted the straightened rim and rebalanced tire on my truck.

Been sober going on nine years and some of my decisions are dumber now....I would agree if I drank but I do not. I make bad enough decisions sober

My wife is an expert on doing that! But when I ask her how she does it, she says she doesn't know, didn't hit anything. Seven times...

On a serious note I would not have an issue banging that back however I would want to do a visual inspection of the wheel and tire separated to make sure there is no unseen cracking or damage before or after.
EDIT: I retract this comment. @M123 had a good point. Have it straightened or replaced.
