Bought the car with these wheels on, when I first saw the pics on the internet I thought they were Alpinas but the centre caps made me think otherwise.

On closer inspection there is no Alpina stamp, but they are made by Ronal who I'm led to believe make some wheels for Alpina.

It's no big deal if they're not anything genuine but I just want to put my mind at ease!!

If you're reading this Adi, I think you said something to my Dad about them but the old geezer can't remember anything.

Thanks in advance for your help :bmw:
