    I beg to differ, These can't be bought new as they were made back in the eighties, I'm a very active member with the 2002 community and a current owner of a 2002, these will not fit an 02 without flares(hence why I didn't put them on mine). The wheels that you are talking about are the Rota's they have different# of spokes if i remeber correctly, and they look different (the area where the spokes meet the lip is flat compared to the real alpinas curved spokes). I doubt that I'm reaching out on the price as I already have gotten an $800 offer that I declined, if they can be had new for $800 please let me know where as I would love to buy a set for my 02 with different offset.

      Thanks for the info.

      These are definitely not "fakes" though. If they are they are the best I have seen! I have never seen open lug fakes, or fakes with the curved spokes. I definitely don't think you are off on price.

      If you want new Kopi Alpina replicas in 15 with the flush spokes, Abrahams Motorsport sells them.

        no problem, That's what I've been trying to explain to everyone that have contacted me so far saying that these are fakes. I've known about the Kopis for a while and I think that's what the other poster was talking about when he said "they're available new for $800", they don't look the same and these have a deeper lip than the Kopis.

              It's easy guys, all the genuine Alpina wheels have the Alpina mark on them.
              I used to have original Alpina wheels made by Ronal, here is a pic:

                You're wheels in the photo were painted wrong. The black center paint should extend the outer lip about 2mm and it should be satin black.

                Not trying to be a dick, but I noticed this once I got deep into the alpina game.

                      I stand corrected it was the Rotas i was eluding to. I'll just troll back into the shadows now..

                                Bump, I put the wheels on my e21 today and drove it they hold air just fine, they do need balancing though.
