Winter tire/rim package

What do you guys think is a fair price for a winter rim and tire package? My MB dealer said they'd give me 30% off their retail price. Rims would be 18" five spokes and rubber would be pirelli sottozero's.

Bunch of us got it for free by taking delivery in December/January. What is their retail price and what is the total after the 30% discount?

I have 2 brand new sets of the factory package (OEM 18" 5 spoke C63 AMG wheels with sottozero tires). Tires still have the stickers on them. Never used.
I'm in Toronto also and will give you over 50% off dealer prices .

Planning on having a chat with the guy tomorrow to get the pricing details. Btw...how do you like the multispokes? Any feedback on feel/comfort with those wheels? I thought they looked amazing so I ordered them on my build. I had hesitations since I thought the larger wheels would result in a bumpier ride but they looked so damn good I couldn't resist.

for comparison, I paid roughly $1800 for four decent 18" alloy wheels and 4 Hankook winter tires last fall. I asked at the dealer, but when he started telling me just the 18" AMG wheels were gonna something like $600 each I literally laughed out loud, and said no thanks...

I'm on the 18" 5 spoke winters right now, but I did drive on the 19" multi-spokes for a few weeks. I love the look, but like any wheel with rubber band tires, it's going to be rough. Not too much more bumpier than the 18" winters IMO, but it's something I'm used to as I had 19" Works for my C350 with thin tires as well. Just gotta avoid potholes and you'll be fine!
