17" 5 lug Alpina's on E30 (AWESOME!!)

How is that too much, at all?
He pulls it off beautifully!

He pulled if off nicely and they look like they fit well. However, 8.5 is a stretch already, but 9.5" in the rear on a stock bodied non-M? It's like a skinny girl with no body getting a boob job. Yeah the tits look great but where's the rest? Not to mention the weight of the wheels and increased drag not only because of width (which he's not using) but since they are out of the wells.

Looks great! I was thinking of doing this to the Touring... Thought it hadn't been done yet... Real 17" Alpinas on a 5-lugged E30.. Kudos man!

Thank you very much, I also could not find photos of this set up so that was my main motivation to do something "new".

Needs fewer doors :)

j/k j/k, it looks amazing! Time for a few body mods to compliment those sexy wheels.

im not a huge fan of wheels extending beyond the wheel wells but...

damn i love alpina wheels, those are sick!

i wish my 16"s had some dish to them....

Damn, I'm undecided. I agree that E30's need dished rims but these are too big for the car especially in a staggered fitment. 17x9.5 on a small 4 door sedan is a bit much IMO.

your stance is PERFECT.
I didn't realize 215/40's stretched so well on 9.5"

Damn this car makes me want a sedan. You should buy Austin's e28 mtech1 wing man!

Hmmm, I will talk with Austin at Cars N Coffee this Saturday.
