I've always loved the Alpina wheels especially in 21". It is a classic design, that looks good on cars and the SUV's.

Have classics on both my B7 and my E30. I love them, but keeping them clean is a labor of love, emphasis on the labor.

Alpina will be positioned between the regular BMW models and the full M models — sporty, but still focused on comfort and luxury.
Like I said, give it 2-5 years and BMW will start commoditizing Alpina name as trim package available on all cars.
Just the same as they did to ///M brand, where "M sport" package is upsold on everything today.

It is the way.
