750 Li with Alpina Wheels

Just got those beauties on my car this weekend! Never really liked the stock wheels that came with the m package. Any others out there with interesting wheels?

Those wheels are hot. The only problem is they must be hard as hell to keep clean with all the spokes.

Have you ever considered lowering your ride? If yours is a 2012, chances are all you need are springs. I changed the springs in mine and it was the best thing I ever did. The ride quality is still perfect, but the huge gap in the wheel well is gone. Not to mention tighter handling around corners.

Thanks for the compliments.

The 22's are custom 3 piece forged wheels and the 21's are BMW OEM style 312 in ferric Grey.

Loved my alpina wheels but they were a nightmare to keep clean. Although they looked extra nice when they were clean!
