ok got a wee bit of coinage put by for the old girl,,,she needs new shoes and boots,,,pic =16" stuff on falkens,,,,i like the look of 15"bbs,,
also pina reps,,,,but 17"seem to crash about a bit....16 " reps on 205 45 16 rubber IS my thoughts??????input. she will be lowered by 40mm all round

What about a set of borbet b's??

coinage! if i go for summit diff then it will be like dave t's re hindhead meet pics,,,
not a great fan or az's either

Get 205 50 16 tyres tough.

keeps the lip clean,,,,,tyers meet the kirb 1st??????

...... see sig..............

speak to danthe about his alpina reps they will look well on yours!

I would go for some BBS's

get some clean 15" bbs on there,the best lookin an handling on a e30. 205/55 tyres an still have plenty of room to lower it

I've got a white iS an i'm getting some 15" bbs's refurbed with nogaro silber centres with polaris dish and lip. One day though i would love to have some 16" hartges! If not Borbet b's or borbet a's. Benjy's red is had 60/40 drop on borbet a's and it looked the shizzle!

i dropped my m40 60mm it took out 2 sumps then i got a sump guard,,,,,
the IS is only getting 40mm&sump guard
bob-s i like your wheels,,,,the big bbs are proper nice and yours too mr schnitzer
but out of my price range.....i've got these to put on,,,,,40mm springs,,,evolve chip,,
green stuff pads & s/stell braided hoses & my trusty sump guard.....

well done.....

They look almost like real Alpinas! Much better than the usual BK reps that's for sure. Some nice centre caps and they will look spot on. Well done sir.

What make are they? We have a set of 16" alpina reps that need a refurb.

i think they maybe the real ones,,,,how do i find out????what do i look for
just took out the center, cap it's made of ally and inside the center of the wheel it says RG ????????7jx16 h2

dont the genuine alpina wheels have a key lock on the centre caps?

Origional Alpinas are made by Ronal and have it stamped both Alpina on the front face and Ronal on the rear, yours unfortunatly are reps not origionals. and lockable centre caps plus a recessed centre for the badge.

i want them pina reps

you could give the pina reps to me

and get some lenso BSX's

Yes.

Now thats an origional wheel like i have.

thought so,,,ah well i'm still happy,,,at least there not 17"
no offence but everyone to their own
where can i get some better center caps that will fit,,
mine are all blank,,with a screw hole??i'd like some with a bmw badge etc...

16's are the best, fit 205 x 50 x 16 on them for a better comfort ride.

now all cleaned up and two new tyres on the front,i left the 225's goodyears
on the back as there is still a few miles on them,,,
i thoght these may rub,but no noises even over speed humps

looking awsome, needs pina badges

ebay domned ones????

i had some on my bk reps and they were good quality, you will need to measure yours etc as there is no indent for the badge

http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/fits-bmw-ALPINA-A ... 240%3A1318

there are different sizes etc, i think thats about the size of the proper ones
