If you really want the gold with PSC2s, it looks like their discount will be a good bit more than getbmwparts (somewhere between 22-24% off MSRP, shipped).
+1 I would go with 255/275 instead 245/265 PSC2 tires

I just took delivery of new black set for $2,950 shipped from Sun Motor Cars in PA. Excellent crew to work with. Had them within three business days.

As CSBM5 stated, pick the tire for the intended task. PSC2s do not like wet and or cold, wear twice as fast as MP4Ss and cost more. Great if it is a pleasure car and/or if tracking, but not something I'd run as a DD. My M2C is my DD so MPSS/MP4S are perfect. I will have my tires, sensors and center caps swapped to the new wheels, hopefully within three days I may sell my black 788s; unsure at the moment.

Also check other sources for TPMS sensors. I think Tirerack has the proper 433MHz TPMS sensors for $35 each.

The sensors are transferrable, yes?

Yes, they are. I was considering the case where a 2nd set of wheels/tires was the plan.

Yes..

However, if you're buy them used or transfer them, get the a rebuilt kit and replace the rubber gasket that meshes the sensor and wheel.. You'll thank me later..

Apparently on the M2C and maybe other cars, one we can swap just the stem. I confirmed this when parts ran my VIN. Do you think the seal you are illustrating is part of the stem? It looks as though it is.

When you remove the sensor from one wheel, it's held together by a rubber gasket, a washer, and a bolt. Sometimes when you transfer the sensor to another wheel, the gasket gets contorted and causes a small air leak..

When saying, if you inspect your old gasket and it still looks like it's in good condition, there is nothing wrong with reusing the same ones.

I just had an inconvince issue, with an air leak because of that silly gasket.. So now I just replace them with the factor gasket, just to avoid any blowbacks..

Got my set from Sun Motors as well. Everything is easily transferable, $2950 + $125 labor to swap over my tires, TPMS, and center caps.

Depends if your tire guy fubars them when he's dismounting your tire. You'd be surprised how easy it is with low profile rims

The better option may be to keep the 788s until time to sell/trade the car, reinstall and sell the 763s. There will always be a market for the latter.

I guess I should rephrase...

I'm just confused because no matter which dealership's website I go to (including Sun Motor Cars BMW), it just takes me to the universal BMW page where I see them advertised for $5870. Is there a coupon code that I need to enter in or something? ...or am I supposed to call them...anyone in particular?

Call Brian in parts. He is the main contact, however, anyone there will help you. Parts direct number 717.697.2300 x 1355

They have a live 763M eBay page most all the time like this current one with pricing at $2950 and free shipping (this is for wheels only of course). Click and buy at $2950 shipped. You can also reach Brian via the contact seller option on eBay. He responded quickly to me last month that way.

I also got mine from eBay from Sun Motor Cars BMW but I waited until there were good eBay incentives.

$2950 - $100 eBay instant coupon - $29.50 eBay bucks - $28.50 MrRebates.com = $2792.

eBay regularly puts out 10% or more coupons capped out at $100. The bucks will be good as cash for me on eBay and the rebate arrives to my PayPal in a couple of months.

Arrived within 2 days. Just search 763m on eBay and they almost always have a listing running.

I plan to take the MPSS from the 788s or buy a set of MPS4S once there are some good discounts. Since it's winter I have the time to be patient! My plan is to daily the 763s so the cup tires I wouldn't consider.
