Default bent rim question

what does it take to bend a rim? i hit a pothole yesterday, size of a coffee can lid (more oblong than round) at about 35mph and now i feel like i have slight wobble at speeds like 70mph, but i dont know if im just imagining it. bike still tracks straight. thanks.

Better safe then sorry. Go have it balanced forfew bucks. Nothing worse then speed wobbles.
