What would be the best way to correct this very slight bend in the wheel?

Take it to a tyre fitter and see if it\'s still round first, then enquire with a wheel refubisher, that\'d be what I\'d be doing.

Have a word with dave the owner of TVMOT, he got one of my wheels straightened by a mate of his and did a spot on job.
