wheel shops in NY, Long Island?

I know there are a lot of members in the NY area. Preferably a LI shop... does anyone know of any reputable shops that do wheel installations? Looking to get new 20s mounted by people who actually do aftermarket wheels for a living. I will probably bring them the rims and tires.

Check the recommended installers in your area on Tirerack.com. I believe they also have users feedback on them.

I have used it and actually got previous tires for my Isuzu installed at one, the local STS tire store that tirerack.com recommended. Was hoping there would be actual aftermarket-wheel type places for higher end cars. Or am I just being picky?

Do all of you just go to local tire shops like STS and Goodyear?

i concur on the tirerack.com reference... they seem to have a good listing of approved vendors along with customer reviews... definitely a great starting point..

i'm doing the same here but in NYC....

on that note.... the wheels and tpm sensors i ordered through Morristown BMW have arrived and they offered to do the install and wheel swap for a nominal fee... (not much more than the local shops)

i'm also providing aftermarket tires which i picked up from tirerack.com..

just another option to consider...
