Need opinions. DPE or Volk

Hey guys, just wanted to get your opinions. I'm torn between 2 wheels. My current rims, Volk LE37T, or my current interest, DPE GT7. Which should I go with? If I get the DPE's I will have to sell the Volks.

The DPE would look very nice on your car. The polished finish will make your car stand out for sure.

Sell the Volks!

Don't get the GT7s, they suck! DPEs are great, just get another model.

James @ Creative. If you become a Premier Member, shipping is free. It's worth the $30.

C'mmon...do you really think it's free? Nothing is free.

Wheel and tire shops will not put out $100 to $200 for shipping for each set they sell. You're already paying for it, they just don't tell you that of course.

Keep the Volks, Gunmetal on CB looks very good and you already have a nice setup. BTW, how much did you pay for your kinetix camber arms? Front and rear setup or just rears?

What is the set up that you ordered? sizes, offset, etc.

How long is the wait to get them?

I ordered the offered 20 size 20x8.5, 20x10 and custom offset for Brembos. The two new styles they just came out with takes about 12 weeks from order date because it's a new design, all the other designs should take between 6-8 weeks.

Get the DPE's since those GT7's are a new model so not many people will have them....I think they debuted at the recent 2005 Bimmerfest?

I think the Volks bring out ur headlights. But im a huge "mesh" wheel fan, on cars like ours. I also love the TE37s on 350/Gs. DPEs may be a nice change tho. Just post pics!
