Will these Alpina copies fit


zippy500

Recommended Posts

I bought a set of Alpina spoked copies a while ago, said in the description that these fit 02's.

Glancing through my copy of restoring 02, came accross a page on wheels, came accross my wheels and it says"will not fit under standard arches".

size of wheels I have are 6Jx13 ET13 tyres 175/70/13.

Can anyone confirm wether they fit on a standard 02?

Thanks

the outside edge of the wheel is in the same position with a 6x13 et13 wheel as with a 15x7 et25 wheel

I had wheel of those same dimensions and they definitely poked out of the front fenders.

If I remember correctly, E21 Turbines have an et-13 offset.

I ran them for 20 years on my Touring with 185/70 x 13 tyres and no problems, and now on Da Beater, also with no problems and it's lowered a tad too.

Just curious o2les, do you plan on keeping the trimless look on your car. It looks nice and I've been thinking about removing the trim on mine. Did you have a body shop fill the plastic trim clip holes?

Da Beater will stay trimless. I would have to have it painted nice if I put trim on. I will put the one missing stainless rocker trim back on one day though.

Not sure how the holes were treated; the previous Owner (Rob Delk) is responsible for that.
