These wheels look good on 7. But 3 needs something sporty, lesser spokes.

The F30 B3 costs from €65.000 and the E92 M3 costs from €68.750 in Germany, so the Alpina is a bit cheaper.
However, the Alpina philosophy differs quite a bit from M GmbH (or AMG for that matter). Alpina offers exclusivity, comfort and speed, and the M's are pure performance cars.
And the wheels are an evolution of the classic 20 spoke wheels they have been using since the 1960ies.
I am a huge fan of Alpina, and I think Alpina is all about tradition and a long history with BMW, and an Alpina is a finished product from the factory - an M3 with BBS wheels and Brembos and other aftermarket stuff is just cool, but an Alpina with other wheels and spoilers is sacrilege
