Too good to be true online discount toyota parts depts?

[Cheers!]

Hi Guys,

I was wondering if this was legit.

I was looking for a source for some TRD Pro wheels in gunmetal... Some of the guys over on a lexus forum suggested checking out championtoyotaparts.com...

it auto forwards to:

TOYOTA Parts at AutoNation Toyota Gulf Freeway Parts | Genuine OEM Toyota Auto Parts and Accessories - Houston, TX

which seems to be a legit dealer in Texas.

PTR20-35110-GR MSRP is $215 USD
their online price is $161.25 USD

most online toyota parts departments I've come across want around $190 a wheel.

thoughts? Maybe someone here has used these guys before?

I haven't contacted the dealer yet, but was going to on Monday morning and see if this was legit or not. Maybe they want 161 a wheel but want 40 bux to ship each wheel? who knows...

prices seem inline with ebay dealer sellers, shipping would probably make or break this deal

[MENTION=112670]Cheers![/MENTION], yes, I'm pretty confident that this is legit. This dealership is only 5 minutes from my house. Champion Toyota went under a few years ago (it's the dealership that I purchased my Runner from new, back in '05) and I believe that Autonation is under the same ownership as Champion used to be, hence the online address forwarding. However, if you are still suspicious, a couple of other DISCOUNT OEM Toyota parts retailers that I have successfully ordered from are:
