New pix... Wheels, CF hood

Sup guys,
After 14 weeks, my new 20" DPE's finally arrived friday. So good reason for me to post new pix. Quick review, for some reason, my DPE's ride so much better than my Iforged rims. Im using the same exact tires. Same exact rims size, 8.5" front and 10" rears, not sure what offsets are on either or if any much different on the weight. When riding my IForged, you can tell by the feel and how car maneuvers, your riding on 20's, but for some reason with the DPE's, seems more like Im riding on stocks. Just feels like its easier to drive the car. Well, maybe its all mental. Hey, its all good! Will keep the Iforged wheels just for a little while, just incase I have the urge to change back. .... Now if APS would just hurry up with the G35 TT kits, I can move on to the next project.

I like the wheels a lot. I'm still not sold on the hood though.

Looks great! Car turned out real nice with the new DPE's!

+1 on the hood though, not my cup of tea... but if you like it, that's ALL that matters!

It's amazing how wheels can change the overall look of the car. The DPEs are hot...makes your car look so much more aggressive. I'm normally not a fan of that hood, but together with those wheels, on a black car, it looks good. Complements the overall aggressive look. Nice job!

very nice car & wheels!! that's a really good look.

however, if these ride better than the iforged, than they were just balanced better. they are both of the same quality, and i'm sure both companies use the same barrel.

Certainly is stealth looking- night rider style. Not what I'm looking for but yours is distinctive.
