In the market for a rear set of new tires for my '07 550i any info or recommendations are greatly appreciated...tires are going to be used in Miami, Florida so im thinking a summer performance tire:
some of my options so far might be:
a)Toyo T1R; Proxes
b)Hankook Ventus V12 Evo, K110
c)Nitto Invo
d)Yokohama S.Drive; Advan Neova AD08
e)Vredestein Ultra Sessanta

Willing to spend in the lower $210 for tires alone...

You're probably good for a Summer UHP tire in Miami - and in February those of us in the NE USA will be thinking about your pain ;-) . What sizes are you running? The "original" 17" size Bridgestone RFT are on special at TireRack this week. Are you looking for a good ride or rocketsled handling? Or is long tread life important to you. That will guide your buying decision and the ratings at TireRack can be very helpful - more so than the marketing stuff that is fed to us!

BTW, if you buy there (or other on-line stores) shop thru the link in my signature for additional rebates.
