No miles,. brand new, taken from a local guy who wants to sell them off his new M5.

Do you think this is a fair deal? The best I have found on the rims is $1600 (before shipping) and the tires on tirerack go for about $225+ each.

Tires: Continental "Sportconctact 2" tires front (255/40/19) and rear (285/35/19).

Let me know.

Too much! You can get a set of OEM rims out the door for about $1800. The rear tires will fit, but the fronts won't. And, if you use the rear tires, it is questionable whether you will have a DSC problem if the front tire is significantly different.

A matching tire for the front would be a 245/40/19, but will rub slightly on full suspension compression.
