chevy dealership issue

I went to a chevy dealer today and was asking about mounting and balancing my new tires and wheels on my 2010 camaro Ls v6. I want to put my new (20 by 9) 20 '' ss replica wheels on with a tire size of 275/40/20 on all 4 corners and they looked a bit puzzled. they said they dont think it could be done on the front end of the vehicle thats why the camaro comes with an off set. They also stated that if it does fit good it will cost $150 plus tax?

my quesions are: 1) i thought it was no issue putting that rim and tire size on all 4 corners on an Ls camaro am i wrong?

2) is that price correct for mounting and balancing?

your feedback will help me a lot thanks in advance.

The price is high for mounting and balancing. But they may also charge for TPMS programming for your new set. There are a lot of place that don't charge extra. If you go to tirerack.com and go through the process of buying a tire up until you select a place to ship them, they will show you tirerack recommended installers and their prices per wheel+ other fees. $25/wheel is a good deal.

And many people have mounted 275's in the front on 20x9 wheels. Myself included.
