I've bought enough aftermarket wheels in my life to know that: costs vary widely; good wheels are expensive; correct fitment - when rare - means you pay more.
These are BMW winter wheels. Each wheel + tire can sell for ~$800-1000 USD. They are cast not forged wheels, so at least each wheel isn't $2000+.
Is it cheap? No. But compared to the Tirerack package (fugly MSWs) it is only ~$500 CAD more pre-tax, and you have the set that BMW put together, fits correctly, and - I assume - tested for driving experience on the car.
