Stupid Noob Question

I have just purchased a set of the same factory TL wheels that mine came with, but in much better condition. They are coming wrapped in the same size tire as well.
My stupid question is: Is this just an easy swap job? Take the old off and put new ones on.
I do not know if I'll need an alignment or balancing?

Thanks

You shouldn't need an alignment. If the wheels are bent or something an alignment won't help, and if they are as good as the ones they replace, you won't need an alignment. This is like rotating the tires, which wouldn't make you think about an aligmnent either.

If you don't have one invest in a floor jack .. even a $20 cheapie from WalMart is safer than the stock one for tire swapping. And torque the wheels properly.
