The manual 635 led me to site showing this (Dutch?) registered M6.

Is it a genuine Alpina car (colour looks like Alpina Blue) and just how big
are those wheels??

Nice, whatever it is!

This is the car which appeared in Performance BMW magazine some years ago.

The only reason why I remember it is because the owner, who did a ground-up restoration on it, decided to fit 20" dia. Alpina alloys.....

He claims there are no clearance or rubbing problems.....

It is a PErformaceBMW, totalBMW, and BMW scene featured car.....

it has a 300hp chip, and 20 inches alloys from a B7 E38 Alpina....

The tyres gives no clearance or grabbing problem due to their ridicolous shoulders( 255/30 )....The tyre size is not so bigger ...

Other particular things:

the car was born with optional 490: sonderlackierung( it is a cosmosblau paint, special order...)...

For the rest the owner ruined  1500 euro of brand new dash to screw a DVD display on it and used to install a very big ICE.....

Now the car has got more power from rear subwoofer than from engine.....

i think it looks ghastly

a real chavved up hairdresser's tarted up load of nonsense

an embarrassment - wheels like that just look ridiculous on this sort of car

obviously, just my opinion...

If You're staring at that car  from 10 meters , it looks good...

A closer look and You will note some stoned notes....I forgot also to say that the brakes are upgraded with E34 M5 stuff....
