Finally got my car back form dealer and everything is riding great. I was considering doing a rim exchange with them and wanted to know if anyone has done business with them.

I have the 19 inch on 09 ls460 SWB AWD.

Thanks for lead Discount does offer service. I would not even venture but the previous owner through you were not close enought to park until the rims rubber the curb and one was bent. Also the clear coat is piling off all the rims. Thanks again for the suggest takes all the variables out of the equation.

Couple more options for you:

*Ebay has folks selling 19s all day

*Craigslist, plenty of options there also...perhaps very close by you as well so you can check them out first

*Send a PM to CL member Rome99LS, he works at Metro Wheel and Tire here in ATL. He has access to thousands of reconditioned OEM wheels that he could probably ship to you and work a deal.

CJitty thanks for all the help. I was looking at the ones on Ebay and they looked good but the core exchanged scared me and reading reviews on google show me the cons of the program.

I went to Discount like you advised and they were the same price as Ebay advantages to me backed by Discount Tire for 5 years,no shipping and the core value was established no charge back or to de determined which is what really concerned me.

Order today will be in a week no charge to install and no deposit for core .

I have yet to see a car with a body kit that was not dropped and still looked good. You will be riding a long Corolla SE or Camry SE without that drop...the kit will exaggerate the wheel gap even more, trust me...but, just an opinion. I know I will get tons of support on that analysis though

Look forward to seeing the pics

I've been trying to get rid of my chrome 18"s on my 460L and get some 19's. I have also been looking for the 18's for my 04' 430 ultra

Cjitty thank you for the tip rims look awesome. Discount made it a worry free transaction. Now All I need to do is trade the 18 I have as a spare and get a 19 just to make everything match up perfectly.
