Rim lip bent

Live with it for a bit, but not too long as that tire will start wearing funny, and once they start that they stay wearing funny until they're shot. Call your agent and check into whether this would be covered, sorry you've had a rough week man.

I would at least have it balanced to see really how bad it is. They can tell just by looking at it how it is bent. They may be able to buy you some time but that is all.
The tire can and may wear on you as stated and also it can and will knock out a wheel bearing if let go. This will create other issues like Rotor Thickness Variation and other issues.
If you want to buy time balance it and put it on the rear.
Also watch the tire to make sure it does not end up damaged in the side wall. Some times it take a little time and they will show sidewall damage. Odds are you will be ok but just keep on eye on it.
I would speak to an agent and replace it vs repair. To manu of htese wheels around so you should be able to pick a used one up in good condition.

That really depends on how many miles you rack up in the average week, I'd move it the rear at the very least, you'll feel it less. Like hyper said, keep a good eye on that tire, sometimes you can break belts and they take some time to show up. Balancing it is a good option and while they have it on the machine they/you can get a good idea of the damage.

On the rear it shoul not hurt the hub and should not shake the steering.
It is one of those deals where I have seen people drive on much worse for 5 years and never have an issue but if I did it I would smoke a part. It is all driver beware. Keep an eye on it or if it shakes wose take needed action is needed.
But I would expect you would and just use good judgement.
