$3k does seem a little high. Wheels and tires are roughly $2000, so that leaves another grand for a set of shocks and some nitrogen. does it need an alignment?
I'd get another estimate to see if they're on par with someone else.
have you got a break down on what they're charging you for parts?

Nitrogen is horsesh*t IMO. The air we breath is made of 78% nitrogen, 21% oxygen. And tire shops expect you to pay extra for nitrogen. I never understood that.
Besides, my uncle owns a tire shop and says it isn't that much of a difference. He doesn't carry nitrogen for that reason.
You can find everything cheaper online. Then I'd call a different tire shop and ask them how much to mount, balance and install them.
