bmw335i 16 Report post Posted March 1, 2010 hi guys, few weeks ago i got a set of genuine 17" alpina rims. the rims are in poor visual cond and on of the rear ( 17x10 ) was buckled. took it to afew mag wheel repairers ( wheel fix it and aarow wheels ) and was told they could never fix it, i didnt want to take no as an answer so i took it to another place ( machine part welding ) just down the road from work. they showed me it spinning and the lip is buckled. dish has a slight buckle and even the hub/boltup part has a slight warp in it. the guy said he could make it better but itd never be right. soooo what i want to know IS THERE ANYWHERE I COULD GET A GENUINE 17x10 alpina rim? thanks heaps/ troy Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
