And you dont really need the torque wrench for any part of the install.

+ $40 dealer activation (according to others around here)

dealer = about $200?

You need a torque wrench to make sure you put the wheel on with the correct amount of torque. It's a BMW, not a Ford Festiva! What if I'm driving circles around an IS or GS and my left rear wheel comes loose?
Still, I like doing things myself and will likely do it myself even if it's only a little cheaper.
