19" DPE R05 Variant-S wheels

I'm finally selling my wheels.

They are DPE R05 Variant-S wheels in Phantom Black. They are 2-piece forged wheels. Sizes are 19"x8"F +(18-20) and 19"x10"R +(19-21). Lip sizes are 1.75"F and 3.75"R. These fit over Brembos! DPE does not release their offsets, but they sit pretty flush. My guess would be high +20s offset. I just had all 4 wheels professionally repolished in October for $500. I paid $3200 for these wheels and now you cannot get these wheels for less than $4000. This also includes DPEs new signature series center caps that were $80. I still have 3/4 of the older DPE center caps that are silver with a carbon fiber DPE logo on them.

I did not spare any money on tires either. They are Goodyear Eagle F1 GS-D3 tires in sizes 235/35/19F and 275/35/19R. Some have asked why the 235 in the front? Well, because the 275 is a little stretched on the rear 10"ers. I've tried 255s and 245s on the front...and the 235s finally matched the stretch of the rears.

Price: $2500













EDIT

New pictures of one of the rears. I spent 2 hours polishing the lip and inner barrel. I would have done more, but my fingers were hurting! As you can see, there is plenty of tread left on the rears with no uneven wear.

Since we don't know offsets, can you measure the lips front/rear?

They don't look like that normally. I just enhanced the picture using Photoshop and it came out like that.

I'd like to, but it doesn't look like it's going to happen anytime soon.

Nice wheels. Great price for DPEs.

Just wondering, what wheels are those on the red Z in the back? Any more pics?
