[W126 Coupe] Rim repair

I have been looking for the OZ Racing made 3-piece AMG rims on US ebay for 
quite a while and have seen nothing of interest to date. (It's the model 
that looks like the AMG Aero II Monoblock, only in 3-piece form.)

However, on the German ebay they are available most of the time. I am 
considering buying a set in Germany and having them shipped over here. It is 
quite a hassle, with international money transfer, customs and import issues 
and all. As well as expensive. Talbir looked into the cost of shipping 
wheels to the US from the UK when he had some rims for sale and was quoted 
close to $150/rim.

Also of concern is receiving damaged goods, or just less than perfect. I 
understand from Talbir that you need special tools for these rims and I 
would therefore need to know where to find an authorized AMG/OZ Racing rim 
repair shop. I went on the OZ Racing website, but they did not have any 
service shops listed. Does anyone know of a US authorized repair shop? 
Hopefully close to Philadelphia?

Thanks.
