Need to find these rims

I went to town fair tire in Derby, Connecticut looking for the Konig Absolut 18" rims. They told me that the factory is out of stock of them and it may take up to a month to get them. The guy said he will look to get them from a middle man and get them to me a lot sooner. Anyone know any reliable tire and rim shops around Ansonia or New Haven in Connecticut?

P.S. I'm undecided on purchasing rims on the internet as well. I don't like making big purchases online and getting the item in bad condition or something else...

Thanks,

Chris.

sorry to add this late, but getting another style rim is sorta out of the question. I have a set of them already but I hit a curb and scratched 2 of them, so I just need 2. If it's my last resort I'll get another style rim if I have to.

why don't you just get en redone. You can bring in a damaged wheel to some places and they can make em like new for around $150-250 per wheel depending on what needs to be done.

what's so different with town fair in derby and in milford? personally the people are better in milford, but do you think they woulda found them for me easier?

btw...I did find the rims at Customwheeldirect.com

Very nice place to deal with, located in California, the pair of rims cost me $410 whereas in town fair they woulda been $530. Btw...Glenn, the guy said he would call me and update me on the status if he found them or not 2 days ago, thx alot!
