tires and wheels Hey all you experts, what wheels are these?

Are they real Alpina's or OZ replicas? how can you tell? To me they look like e21 offset.

Are they 15x6's with a funky offset, or 15x7's? Any obvious signs?

thx

Matt

OZ knock-offs in e21 offset to me. The telletale is the roundel center cap, not an Alpina.

to check out from BMW Scene magazine, January issue 01/04 and "BMW Car, November 2003. Both bought at Borders bookstore( a weakness - but they show stuff we never see in USA). One features/pictures the whole CSL line, especially the Batmobiles. The other article features, yet another lucky Swiss guy's car, who owns 1 of 2 Alpina CSLs( series II- total production 57 cars in 1974). These were CSLs redone by Alpina-and it is absolutely beautiful. The articles says that Alpina actually did most of the R and D for all the CSLs for BMW.

not, but the 15x6s on the front of the 320 I got a few weeks go have the following cast into the center of the wheel between lug bolt holes: Alpina / ET12 6J 15 H2 / K8A4O265 / 3611107 - same on both wheels.

... but those mirrors he selected DEFINATELY disagree with me.

Hartge and alot of others who sold them under their own name. I know that some Alpina wheels have "Alpina" cast into them- usually near the size + offset info, but some true Alpina wheels have "OZ" cast into them too.
