Did you buy your wheels at a local shop or online?
Just curious how many folks walked into a store to get their wheels vs internet purchasing sight unseen?

I ended up ordering mine from Goodwin Racing. I have seen mine in person in a different color so I had a good idea what they looked like.
There are very few places in NC that sell good wheels under 20".
Online, except one set. I will sometimes photoshop wheels on the car to look, mock up a buck to check the offset/width to clear fenders and brakes.

if they're used: online. new wheels/tires at a shop.
Online, except one set of MR5's I picked up locally, from a guy online.
Locally or unseen from YJP or eBay.

Got mine online from 949 Racing.
The kind of wheels I like aren't sold locally.
only local dealers here stock STRs and the like. yahoo japan or forums/facebook for me
Online. No dealers local to me sell 6ULs or K1s.

I used to be an enkei dealer so I ordered those directly. I've bought some others in person used, ordered custom spec rotiforms from the owner and most recently a set off yjp
In my area dealers are abundant, but I can't find the wheel I'm looking for so got it online from 4wheelonline.
I usually buy online out of convenience and selection, but will not rule out on getting a used set from CL.

Sometimes I will check and print the prices online and show it to a local shop to see if they can match or beat price.
