About to order DPE R06 S variant...
OK, after lurking around the wheels forum for quiet some time I'm finally ready to pull the trigger on a new set of shoes for my ride. I'm hoping that you guys can give me a little help on some questions so I can get them ordered. I want to go with 9X19 fronts and 10x19 rears, DPE R06 S variant, black centers with a polished lip. So here are my questions:
What offset should I go with? I'd like the deepest dish possible on the front and back. Currently I don't have the Brembros but I'd like to add a big brake kit in the near future. If I get Brembro clearance numbers will I be OK if I get Stoptecs or some other brand later? Would spacers solve this in the end?
Polished lip? I've read that some people have had a hard time keeping polished lips clean. Should I order chrome, is that even an option with DPE?
Finally, does anyone have a hook-up on DPE wheels? I've gotten a couple of quotes; I just want to see if I can do any better.
BTW, I did search for DPE wheels, but the g35Drive search did come up with anything.
Thanks

Hey,
Call Eric from SupremePowerParts. 714-632-1951. He sells alot of DPE wheels. Tell him Larry from SanDiego referred you. Tell him exactly what you want ( clear big brakes and biggest lip possible ). Go with black centers and polished lip. Shop is in So.Cal, so you can just pick-up. You can also email James from CreativeAutoworks ( james@creativeautoworks.com ). He can also get DPE's.

Hey thanks for the info and hook-ups! One funny thing everyone chimed in about Eric from SupremePowerParts, unfortunately his price was the highest quote I got. I was hopping to get 9x19 for the fronts but TwilightG35 is right 8 and 10 are their standard sizes. Looks like I'll be going 8x19 fronts and 10x19 rears. Does anyone know if a 2 inch stager will cause too much over steer or other problems?

DPE's are prob my current fav. wheel on the market, they came up in the wheel market and are SICK! Here are my fav. DPE's, R07 Variant S's, those R06 Variant S's are sick too, and you def. have to go black and polished
