OK, great thanks! I also found them here for about $1600 (plus shipping). I'm going to see if I can get my local dealer to match this price so that I don't need to pay for shipping.

not a bad price, but I've heard Gary at Newport give s a better price than that...you could also do a search for 166 wheels to get a feel for price range..there many threads regarding these wheels and purchasing them...good luck...nice choice in wheels....

what are you going to do with your 172's?
BTW, I plan to just change the rims and keep the stock tires that the 550i sport comes with. I think I read in another thread that will work.
