Is this place legit? Should I be looking out for anything specific? I wanted to swap my 18s for the OEM 20s.
Is the price fair?

Also, what tires would you suggest using for these? I want to somewaht try to keep a smoother ride, and I know from reading here it is hard to do that when going to the 20's.

Thanks

That price is kinda steep and they sound shadey:

Did you get a dealer quote on an 18/20 swap?

I got my 18 swapped for oem 20's for about 1000 after I sold my 18s. Love it, think I got lucky with the deal I found on ebay.
