Depends what sort of look you want?
IMHO Azevs look the nuts, proper old skool rim. Having said that, I have a set of Hartges, which you can compare to the Alpinas. Completely different look tbh tho..

The Azevs need to be staggered to look good, ie 16 x 9's on the rear with 225 tyres.

Jesus Lee do you have these saved?? One mention of Azev and these come back to haunt me
As Lee mentioned above A's really need to be staggered, whereas Alpina & Hartge can be worn as a matching set, although if one wears a Tech II kit you really should be rocking a staggered set-up anyway to balance the heavy look of the rear

Personally I'd say I prefer the look of the avez's, but when you have a woman like that outside your car who cares

What car are you looking to put them on? do you have a picture.
I prefer the Azev's, they look great (in 17's - which i'm informed they no longer make) and they are really easy to clean, no multi spoke madness...
