20" DPE R16's

First I want to thank the team at DPE Wheels for the fantastic service/support, especially Manu for his patience. This is my 2nd set from them within a 5 month period and I would highly recommend them.

Here's some quick shots before I wake up in a couple of hours to get them installed.

DPE R16
forged 2-piece wheels
Rivetless, Brushed w/polished lips 20x8.5 - 2" lip
20x10- 3" lip
retails: $1K+ per rim


Visit www.dpe-wheels.com for additional info.

Excellent choice! I hope your 19" LS-5's went to a good home. I was at their new offices a few weeks ago and saw a bunch of new designs. Business over there is really picking up.

BTW ... it looks like you can also get a piece of glass and use them as a coffee table!

DPE Rims......

[QUOTE=G35in305]very nice, but a pretty small lip for 10" wide rears.

On a 10" rim 3" is the normal size lip if you want to run the correct size tire
and are considering a drop. You could do the "ricer" thing with stretched tires
where the rims sticks out beyond the body line but this is a G35 not a Honda
whatever.

3" lip is pretty big on a sedan. Anyway, I'd rather have a smaller lip than spokes that were so convex the wheel looks like an upside down soup bowl.
Look at an axis matrix wheel for example of what I'm talking about.

Rear offset is 48+ and flush with the rear sedan fender. I also didn't want it to be super aggressive.
