Check out these wheels on Ebay

Anyone ever see these before? They are a really nice design, kinda like the Alpina wheels I've seen on some BMWs before. Price is very low, $690 for four wheels? And they are sized exactly as my OEMs. Anyone have any experience with these wheels or the seller. By any chance does anyone have pics of these mounted on an X5?

Thanks!

Price is low because they are replica wheels. You can get CSL replica and BBS LM replica around the same price from places. Never dealt with the seller before and haven't seen those on any X5. Best bet would be photoshop... and I suck at photoshop.

J.S.4.8: Those wheels are sharp; I always liked the Alpina wheels (usually on a 7 series). I have dealt with that seller before; brought a set of reps' for my S6. Perfect fit and no problems. This is by no means an endorsement; just a little more info for you.

I am buying those wheels in the next month or two (wife is in "house" mode right now). There is someone else on the board here that has them on their white X (mine is also white, so it gave a good clue on how it will look). I will find it.

JS - if you cannot find them in auction, go into that seller's store and you will also find them. I thought I had missed out on them when I could not find them at auction, but a searched in his store and they were there.

Post some pics when you get em installed.

What tires are you looking at for these??

Wow those rims are nice but they don't fully resemble the Alpina's. Notice style 89's have 3 spokes as suppose to the 4 on the Alpinas. Non the less they are hot. Too bad they don't have a huge rear lip like the Alpina's

Alpina's:
Front: 21x10 285/35
Rear: 21x11.5 325/30
Look at that rear

Notice the spokes


Style 89's
