Found a picture to compare
I would say there 15"
I think I could live with them as my second set of wheels if you don't want them pass on the details

top one in MISSY's pic has 16's
the bottom one you can see looks smaller with different shape (slightly due to the smaller dia involved) spokes

Look the same as my 15" hartges, the tyre profile is to big for them to be 16's. Quite rare, buy em.

OK ......dumb question time
Does anyone know why the centres are different on these two wheels?
How come the bottom one appears to have a lock arrangement similar to the genuine Alpina's while the other has a 'clip-on' arrangement like the Alpina rep's?

^ The clip on is plastic = lighter.

Damn right you'll get slated for it!!!
15" had locking caps, 16" had clip on centres.
I have 16" on my touring, complete with clip on genuine centres from Birds.
