My new alpina rims!

joeyb649 · 06-27-2015, 06:52 AM

Hmm what's next. What do you all think if her?

06-27-2015, 02:43 PM

What are the wheel/tire specs? Way too much poke in the front. Front needs more camber, rear needs spacers to pull off this "look," JMHO of course.

AceOnShake · 06-27-2015, 02:45 PM

hmm looks very ugly.

ethanjoon · 06-27-2015, 02:46 PM

I've never been a fan. Could look good. Needs a drop IMO

joeyb649 · 06-27-2015, 04:19 PM

I suppose everyone is different. I got a ton of compliments on them I've always been a fan of how B3s look with the 20 spoke style.

Zombie1 · 06-30-2015, 05:08 PM

I like the look like others have said needs a drop and some spacers out back. Now those tail lights are another story...

If you put spacers it will hit wheel well they are 19". This is close to a Alpina B3 style I'm not arguing everyone is entitled to opinion but Alpina B3 might not be your taste deff not ugly though. I'm open to suggestions, again not arguing, I can take constructive criticism. As I've stayed before I've gotten compliments left and right without eve. Bringing them up right after I got them.

Yeah man to each his own, so many people HATE my car it is what it is if we all liked the same shit life would be boring! I do like the rims!

VMRWheels · 06-30-2015, 07:21 PM

Nice! Kudos for the rare OEM+ find.. similar to finding rare Mugen wheels for a Honda or older BBS for an E30 etc. Would look even better with a drop!

Wheel look great imo!

TheGlobetrotter · 07-04-2015, 05:14 AM

The wheels look great! I wouldn't do it myself though. If there are going to be Alpina wheels it should be an Alpina car.

GRIP · 07-04-2015, 02:35 PM

What Alpina model is that? 19x9.5" Nope?

joeyb649 · 07-04-2015, 02:36 PM

Just a 3 series sorry to disappoint. I always liked 20 spoked rims so just did it.

Many (including me) disagree with you. Ugly and a bit ghetto roller looking. OEM or not.

08TUNDRA · 07-04-2015, 07:48 PM

I love the look it would be even better with an alpina front lip or an m tech bumper. Dont lower it would make it look ghetto IMHO. Also I would put multiple wheel locks on every rim beacuse the market for these rims are huge and they are stolen far too often. Tail lights are a cool personal choice. LCIs would make it look super agressive and that would look great. Just few opinions.

I agree dropping luxury cars is ghetto what part would you suggest for an alpine lip with having to install a new front bumper?

joeyb649 · 07-04-2015, 07:53 PM

This is kinda lci taillight a to me kinda like 5 series with the lines. That is the style I like with the line lci taillights id take a look if you can list some products these are the nicest I can find. I try to modify without making it look modded. Thanks for responses.

08TUNDRA · 07-04-2015, 07:57 PM

If you're installing a new bumper def get mtech cause those look mean on e90s but if you dont want an entire new bumper google search e90 alpina lip. I haven't seen too many people with them so im not too educated but it goes on top of the bumper you have now.
