Does anyone on this forum own this car?

Notorious for a spirited thread a few years back. Makes for interesting reading.

I am looking to see what size 8" front wheels fitted and what et they had.

Even if the owner is not here (or is but is keeping schtum) I would appreciate any advice. I have 8.5" x 17" wheels from my B10 but they do not fit.

Thes eare 8" but the only ones I have found are et46 which means the wheels foul the struts.

Apropos of little response and for anyone else wanting to put a set of wheels like this on their car, the front wheels are Alpina Part Number 3611648.

I just bought two, so will see what they look like............but I had earlier today bought 4 BBS RC090 Style 5 wheels which are 8j x 17 et20 which fit our cars.

They need refurbishing which I have started but they will be for sale.

They look like this - Decoupe's car I think - which is rather nice.

The tyre size needs to be 225/45/17.

Any takers from the UK?

Hi Rek,

Edit: Oops I didn't catch your second response. Looks like you are good to go!

What you are looking for is Alpina 17x8 ET19 , part number: 3611648. They are "winter wheels" from an E34. You can buy them new here:

Thanks Markos - it's exactly what I did today, just after picking up the BBS's.
