Count your self lucky. For my 535i with MSport, which means performance summer tires, I bought OE 17" wheels and Dunlop Wintersport M3 SST tires. Mounted and balanced, but not installed, that was $3800, a month after I picked up the vehicle. Goes like a tank in the snow, though.

Imagine if we lived in Australia.
