loving that dish

hmm the alpinas are from a e36 so yea

bugger wont they fit, what will this offset cause if i put them on?

[topcat 11]

those replicas are also available for e23/e28's. got two sets for the e23's i own.

do check thet are round as it took me 6-8 trips back to the tire shop to check them over and over and.........

you get the picture.

now that i have 2 sets that are true/staight,the cars drive superb

[bravo 35]

Easy. The motorsport rims are way to modern looking for an e28. the pinnas are good looking, and timeless in their design. They don't look old, but look great on an older car.

Those Alpinas are the 'newer' softline version. The lip is rounded and smooth rather than the old school 'square' lip.

Still look the nuts though on an e28

[edit] Where are the Alpinas for sale ? That looks like a genuine wheel rather than a replica.

Alpinas, they are a classic looking wheel.The M5 wheel is to modern for your model of car i reckon

[madandy 0]

Agreed.

Those M5 Replicas are 20 offset huh? I had them on my watchlist but they wont work on an E36 will they?

There were some m5 throwing stars on trademe not so long ago..

Here they are

Looking at Brent's post that E28 with the M5 rims look very suitable, i'm thinking the Alpina's won't look as good as them.

[nath 134]

those 'Throwing stars' do look great WITH SHADOWLINE, but they arent at question, so i vote alpina.

Why not sell the e28 and get the E28 B9 3.5 (nz new, german built) for 11k?! but then again, i suppose that isnt at issue either!

They were $800 from memory, if you have some way of contacting the seller you should be able to find out. Not sure if they were genuine or not but they would lokk mint on your car.
