DPEs look pretty good to me, especially the price...

Yes, I did switch back to the R16s because the GT7s won't come with rivets.

LInk to the HRE rims im thinking about getting

Here is my PERSONAL OPINION per my personal experience:

HRE:

Price: B (too expensive)
Deliver Time: B (avg. 6 weeks)
Quality: A (needless to say)

DPE:

Price: A (cheap)
Deliver Time: C (avg. 2 months)
Quality: B/C (of course HRE is better)

SO, WHY NOT TRY ASANTI?

Price: A/B (less expensive than HRE, under $4K for 20" Chrome)
Deliver Time: A/B (avg. 4 weeks - 4 weeks of course to us only, some dealer can take up to 2 or 3 months to get a set)
Quality: A (needless to say = HRE)

If budgetwise, for $3K, try DPE and wait; if for $4K or above, try HRE or Asanti. GOOD LUCK
