E30 Zone

does anybody know if you can still buy Hartge and Alpina wheels new from Birds and Sytners?

if they do does anybody know a price for a set of Hartge 16" wheels and a price for a set of Alpina wheels?

if they dont do them new ill just have to keep and eye open for a set, and if they do sell them i get a feeling they are gonna be very expensive.

ian

im not sure about the hartge wheels, but i know for a fact that the Alpina's on E30s were off production many years ago, this is why they are so rare. If they were still in production you wouldn't have so many people buying the reps! The original alpinas are personally my favourite wheel and if you are willing to spend around £600, keep an eye out on Ebay etc...

£600 is not a lot for a decent set of wheels.

like you say £600 is not alot for a decent set of wheels, i was expecting people to say yes they are still avaliable and they are 1500 or something like that.

ill just keep hunting ebay for some hartge 16" wheels or on here.

A genuine set of 16" Alpina Wheels direct from BMW are approx £1100 EX VAT and excluding tyres. You don't need to goto to Sytners for them either. They are currently available. As for the Hartge, there's more chance of you finding Lord Lucan than obtaining a set of these.

om just gonna wait for a set of Hartge wheels to come up i think, and as yuo say they dont come up oftern but they will do though,

Hi Ajay
I enquired not so long ago, but the price put me off a little. If I remember the correct set-up was 7.5 x 16 front and 8x16 rears. Beautuful rims though. One of the best out there for the E30

That's me saving up then!

Oh, and welcome back mr Hubble, long time-no here

right who wants to sell me there AHrtge 16" wheels then?

soem must want to.

, i think the original alpinas are the perfect wheels for any E30, my cousin had them on one of his sports and it really makes a difference seeing them in the flesh, the wider setup at the back works very nicely... not too long ago i saw a set of original alpinas with tyres go for £650 on german ebay, i was so tempted!

saying that i have actually found a lovely set of 16" schnitzer wheels on german ebay which do look stunning, so many choices.

these ones??? the cheap bastard hasnt even bothered to get new centure caps for them!

nope there are another set on there, and he has said he will send to england

schnitzer rims are about as tasteful as Racing Dynamics rims.

MK motorsport are bmw approved too you know but their stuff is really rare
