Alloy Wheels

[EggUK]

I wonder if you guys can assist me identifying some alloy wheels. I have a 1974 CSI, the alloys fitted are pictured. I also have a 1976 E3, the alloys first of all on the E9 look staggered front to back, and also seem to have a deeper dish when compared to those on the E3.

Any idea which set might be the more original, or are both original to the respective car ? I've just simply not seen 14" staggered before.

Searching enlightenment ....

What do the castings say on the hub by the lug nuts?

What do the castings say on the hub by the lug nuts?

To be honest I've not looked that closely yet, I shall take a look tomorrow and post back.

What might you be expecting them to say ?

They can say alpina, fps, oz, bmw etc.

There is a possibility that the fronts are the standard issued 6x14" 20 spoke FPS wheels while the rears are fitted with the fatter and much deeper lipped 7x14" actual Alpina CSL rims.
