Same here, and NO company polishes the inner barrel of a 3pc model for free. (HRE charges 200 per wheel to polish and clear the inner barrel). Also even on 2pc the rivets are real, which I think is a good thing. Better than just stick on rivets.

For those who have 20's and Brembos do you have any shaking when braking? Do you notice it takes more time to brake?

But yeah DPE's are some super nice wheels also.
That is weird, two friends of mine just picked up sets of iForged wheels (one aero and one swift) and both have half polished wheel hoops with the valve stems sticking out of the face of the wheels. I don't know if iForged has just slacked off in telling people it's extra for those things in the past few months, but that crap would be unexceptible for the price you pay. Let alone not having the option even mentioned.

DPE comes standard with both of those features, not even an option. It's silly that HRE's wouldn't, but I am sure they at least tell you about it.

The tires wont wear faster unless your camber is screwed from lowering the car. You can go with that size out back but I would stay with a 245 in the front. My car was on Eibachs when I first put these on, it was dumped! But I was worried about camber because tires arnt cheap!

You would have to call them and sort that out when you order. Just tell them what you want. I would call Symbolic direct. No you dont need a camber kit if you dont drop the car.

You got all that for 2700? From who? Dont go with those tires. They are JUNK! The reason why I ask about the price is I worked at a wheel shop, the wheel shop where I got mine. I know what cost is and there is no way they can give you that price. Make sure its a good company your going with.
