Hubcaps for Alpina alloys

[Drew20]

Hi all, just a question re hubcaps for Alpina alloys. Below is a piccie previously shared by Stevehose in a previous thread (thanks), a wheel which looks just perfect

Looking at Coupeking and W&N there are a few options out there. CK's option is pricey but looks great. W&N has two options, one with the BMW prop, and the other with Alpina's badge. Which would be most correct for 5-hole 14x7J Alpina alloys?

Or there is the bmw dealer option also, though no photo of this

Hi Drew,
The only correct ones are the metal ones with the BMW emblem. The plastic ones are definately wrong!

You can get them from W/N or even your local Bmw dealer. The originals all had the bmw emblem. If you insist on having the Alpina emblem, look on the W/N site, Alpina section and they have a 58mm Alpina emblem which you’ll have to ‘shrink’ 1mm since the emblem size must be 57mm to fit in the mould.

CK has the correct lug nuts to complete the package.

I bought my alpina ones from an ebay seller in germany. Haven't seen them for sale in a while. Bmw ones are available from the dealer(s) for not much coin. Not shown in that pic are the alpina valve stem caps i bought on ebay after too much wine!

Thanks both, I'd rather have the BMW logo, as the car is a BMW, not an Alpina. Did not realise you could get the metal caps from the dealer, will give them a go

Cheers
