One of my favorite online GM parts dealers already has Enclave Accessories in their online catalog. Browse to http://www.gmpartsdirect.com/accessories/frameset3.cfm, select Buick, Enclave, 2008, and the submodel and the list will appear with their price (shipping extra). One noticeable item is the luggage rack cross rails. However, it appears they don't yet have a price on them. Acadia's have available cross-rails too (price is available), but I don't know if they are theu also fit the Enclave. Assist steps are also available... Enjoy

I have heated seats in a couple of my vehicles too and I use them all the time. MsS42 I suppose you won't need them in Southern Cal. I onced lived in Santa Barbara Co. :blob:
No, they aren't a factory option. They're a GM accessory wheel. They are purchased seperately and don't include tires. They would not be available on the vehicle from the factory.

according to the enclave book 20's will be available as a late option.....admin can u help w/this....who in the world in their right mind would buy rims w/o wheels....i can see that if you are driving a train that is the only vehichle that uses no tires.
I am fairly certain that these are DIO's and not factory options because the brochure does not mention them as a factory option. If that is indeed the case, you are buying wheels and need to buy tires separately.

well, if thats the case they can keep em because i can go get my rims + wheels aftermarket on my own thus deleting the middle man and they will be much cheaper. plus they have a bigger variety of rims to choose from those aftermarket stores are plentiful here in california. i mentioned somewhere in here that we see the cars from the dealerships at the aftermarket shops all the time getting new rims, grills, tv's, dvd's just to name a few. the dealerships bring them the cars to put the ordered options on the cars the aftermarket shop returns the cars to the dealerships and people really think they are getting things that the dealer itself is installing....NOT...check your options and if they are coming factory installed check around your city you may be able to cut out the middle man.
MsS42 - The Accessories catalog options that you can get after the vehicle has been built are no different than any other aftermarket parts you can get from any of those aftermarket stores. They are simply made by GM. So yes, in essence, buying the Dealer installed 20s would be exactly the same concept as going to 'Bill's Hotrod Shoppe' and getting a set of 20 inch PIAAs. The upside to getting the DIO version is they are usually branded with the Buick logo and/or otherwise custom tailored to a specific vehicle. But whichever you choose is up to you. In the custom wheel world, though, generally, they aren't sold with tires, you get those separately. Now that's not to say that the aftermarket place doesn't sell both as a combo deal, but that's their doing, not the wheel manufacturer.

Does anyone know how difficult the assist steps would be to put on? I haven't been able to find any instructions anywhere on what it entails and I'd like to understand what the extra $300 the dealer would charge does for me (or if I can save that...)

That's about right. We've installed about a dozen pairs and the hardest part is getting the old rocker panels off! The intructions come with the set.
