17" 8.5" wide.
Looking quite good, including the center cover and key.

I am going to bid on these.
Question is how much, what is the limit?
What would your final bid be in $?
If the price goes too high, I will step out and wait for the next chance.

Forget about the tires, just the wheels.

Here is another set with 8J-18 
Tires 225/40R18 and 255/35R18 
But that starts with about 1.900 $ minimum price :(

I'd probably go $1,500 max if it were me. However, I'd realize that I really wanted them, so I'd probably choke up another 500-1000 just to secure that they're either mine, or out of my league.

I stop now. Already at 620 $ and 1 day to go.

Next time there will be another chance.

Is it not it cheaper to buy an e32 at Japanes auction with them on it? There was a B12 that sold in there recently. Perhaps Erich you are buying too many e32s and are simply requiring more Alpina wheels than Alpina cars you are buying... I think it might be time to send some unwatned stock to Aus!

Did you talk recently to my father in law where I keep all the stuff :(

:) At the moment he is still quiet. But I HAVE to get rid of the blue 750, that stands right in the way to his museum.
I once said to him 3 month, now it is more than one year.

The other cars are waiting in line behind some nice bushes :p
