DPE's arrived!

As the title states, they arrived! 20x8.5 and 20x10 Gunmetal R07s Variant S.
Built to clear Brembos.

I don't even own a G coupe yet. I've been lurking around the G boards learning and researching. I plan on buying one around Sept.

I saw that James from Creative Autoworks had this set in stock. They were what I wanted, so I jumped on it. I know I could of ordered a set and probably received them by the time I actually had a G, but I just hate waiting.

Anways...Thanks to James, he got them to me when he said they would come. He still owe's me an accessory kit, because he was out of stock, but he said he should have some in this coming week and will be shipped out to me as soon as he gets it in.


Does anyone know the offsets for these wheels that clear the brembo's. I don't doubt they fit, I'm just curious to know what the numbers are. Are the lips clear coated? If not, has anyone thought of putting a Powder coat cear coat on it, to make it easier to clean?

Now on to the pics...









Here are the obligatory monetary bill on the lip

WOW, i cant belive you, you bought wheels and you dont even own a G yet, talk about big baller status right here.

DPEs are the $hit, i have a set also, and also more and more members are starting to get them.

Looks sweet.

Ohhh also it seems like it will fit the brembos in the front, you wont have to worry about the rear.

here is mine

Great choice. Not to many RO7's in gunmetal. Those would look very nice on a DG G.

These are one of my favorite models, ever, specially in gunmetal. What color is your G going to be? And can you please weigh them and get back to me on that? TIA.
