Got a set of Firestone Firehawk Indy 500 tires in 245/45/19 for sale.
These are known as the cheaper alternative Ultra High Performance Summer tire to Conti ECS/Michelin PSS. According to TireRack (https://www.tirerack.com/tires/tires.jsp?tireMake=Firestone&tireModel=Firehawk+Indy+500&partnum=435WR9FHI5XL), these are ranked 1st (of 17) in the UHP category, with a 340 treadwear rating.
Brand new, these are $930 CAD before WA tax/Canadian Tax/Duties/5D Package. There are less than 3000km on this set of tires but there are cosmetic rub marks, thus my price is as follows.
$700 for the set or $400 for a pair.
Short Review in response to how I like it on the M3 page
I actually had MPSS before, ran both at auto-x. I found that at the end of it's life, my MPSS had severe wear on the inside shoulder. I haven't driven the Firehawks long enough to comment on durability, but I can say that it stops on a dime. Obviously, my 330ci doesn't have the same power as a M3, but I haven't broken loose once and I drive pretty aggressively. I would say that the Firehawks get greasy quicker than the MPSS, but for everyday driving, you might as well get the Firehawks.
