School me on these O.Z. Alpina 15x7's

[rede30]

I guess I know quite a bit from the markings on these wheels but still have a few questions. I know these are 15x7 et 12. Made by O.Z.

What I don't know. Are these Alpina reps? They say TYP 09.A and I thought Alpina had some type 9's like this in these exact size.

value? are they rare? seems like a sweet offset and size for 02 guys, and e21/e30.

From what I know, Alpina wheels were manufactured by Ronal. Authentic Alpinas had 19 spokes. The OZs are "replicas" and are 20 spoke. I put replicas in quotes because OZ never intended them to be a replica of an Alpina wheel.

I may be a little off but I hope that helps.

great wheels for the 2002 and the e21 guys, we havent had much luck selling them to the e30 crowd as they want 16" or wider then 7".

Funny... I think 15 X 7 wheels are perfect for an E30... :)
