Default Looking for a wheel shop pa/de/nj area

Can anyone recommend a good shop that can replace my wheel barrels? I would like to replace and widen my rear wheels with new barrels and replace the front barrels. Haven't been able to find a good shop. I'm located in the Philly area but will travel if the shop does good work.

Hit me up if you have any ideas.

Try hitting up Needpowdercoating in Newark NJ. Their work is pretty solid. I have a few friends that had their wheels refinished and fixed there.

Best bet is to buy them put it on yourself it's real easy just gotta find a company that sells it but if u need fixing or refinishing my friend works for LNT wheel company and he's has a truck where he goes around to other dealerships but good luck and he's located in Delaware county

I'm looking to possibly buy new inner barrels and lips for my wheels to widen them. Or just buy 19's. It just isn't easy to find a good shop that sells import style wheels. If I was looking for like 20" plus wheels for a suv those kinda shops are everywhere.

I have a sc400 with a vertex wide body kit on it. I bought it with 18x9 -9 front wheels 245/35 and 18x10 -9 rear wheels 275/35. I have a good bit of space on the inside part of the wheel to fit more wheel and tire on the front and back. So I'm trying to possibly go 19x9.5-10 on the front and a 19x11.5 - 12 on the back. Would like to see if a 255 would fit on the front and a 305-315 would fit in the back. I need more fire under the car for traction. I'm running 22psi daily with my wastegate spring setup (that's my low boost) and I need more tire.
