I need a rim job

I am looking for rims in the New York tri state area. I want to know where all of my fellow New York/New Jersey/Connecticut peoples got their wheels for they whips. I have been researching rims for about 5 months now and want to finally pull the trigger and buy them. Would rather not buy on-line.
HELP

Are you a comedian? I could have swore you were implying something else at first.

For people looking for rims in the New Jersey area, check out Illusions on route 10 in East Hanover. Tell them Matt with the silver TL sent you. Only talk to a guy named Kash !!! His prices start out high, but when I order rims for my friends from him, I use www.superbuytires.com as a reference, and I make sure he always beats the price.

You can go to National Discount Tire in Yonkers. I had to order a rim b/c I shattered one and the guy there was extremely nice & helpful...even called me to inform me of status rather than me calling him. DO NOT go to Best Tire in Queens...they will tell you what you want to hear and then screw you in the end.
