Choosing tires and wheels

I recently bought BMW 535d xDrive (F10, 2015), and as it didntn't have winter tires, so I decided to buy ones. Here is what I think might be good:


AEZ Steam graphite (8x18 5x120 ET:30)

Continental WinterContact TS 850 P (245/45 R18 XL Run Flat,*,MOE 100 V)

The links are in Czech (as I live in Prague), but the common parameters should be clear. Here are the questions that I got:

1. Is it a good choice all together?
2. A friend of mine told me that I might need pressure sensors along with the wheels. Is that true?
3. Another friend of mine (and as well as a tire service) told me that I'd better buy original wheels rather than 3rd party ones. Is it true in my case?
4. And yet, if I buy 3rd party wheels, are AEZ wheels good? Are there better ones? (in terms of quality and design)

P.S. Here is a list of installed options, just in case one will need that to answer my questions:
