Default Wheel Shop in Northeast - recommendation

Looking for a recommendation for a wheel shop to replace inner barrels on 3 piece wheels.

Google results are most all West Coast or Europe, need Northeast if possible

Thanks
David

Can you be more specific in terms of location? NYC area?

USA Wheels in Fairfield, NJ does good work. I think they do (or maybe did?) work for a nearby Porsche dealership, too. Prices seem reasonable, too.

We live in Upstate New York, West of Binghamton

I think I lucked out this afternoon with SST, from CT. They are doing a track event at WGI and I will be handing the wheels off to them.

I Really lucked out.

Check out Proformance Industries in New Rochelle NY. Got clued onto them by Larry AMMO GUY. You can’t really go wrong with these guys. Good luck!

DeMan Motorsport in Blauvelt would be closest to you.

Update
8 weeks later.
Wheels arrive on my front porch.
Thanks to Speed Sport Tuning in Danbury, CT.
Had Cargraphic manufacture new barrels and ship with new bolts/nuts & valve stems here from Germany.
SST, did a great job putting together.

Nice. I'd missed this thread earlier. Glad to hear it worked out (and that you didn't choose Proformance).

Speed Sport Tuning is a Cargraphic dealer in the US.
I had registered for a CVR PCA event at Lime Rock. When I registered I was concerned about the noise restriction and my modified exhaust. One of the folks from CVR suggested a couple different support shops that might give me some insight about the decibel limit.
Spencer was one of the two, I called him and he gave me some logical advise, discuss with instructor and just don't bring the rpms up and you should be fine.
Then at Tech Inspect, I was completely floored about the cracks in the right rear wheel and slightly bent left.
Then, low and behold, I end up needing a Cargraphic dealer.
But after using them for this, I can't recommend them enough. Too bad they are 200 miles away.
