Default DPE Wheels- New Company, any info

Guys,

Picked this up surfing M/B world, wanted to know if anyone on our side knew anything about them. Info is always good.

Designs look pretty nice, check out the site. I noticed that they only list European cars in the gallery, dont know if that means anything

Looks like good quality forged wheels. Seems as though they cater to Euro luxury cars.

Yeah I saw these about a month ago on a Bimmer site. DPE stands for Dynamic Performance Engineering. My friend is ordering a set of the R20's in 19"s at the end of this month for his E36 M3. I'll be sure to take pics when he gets them and share them with all of you.

They come in 2 and 3 pc in 18", 19, and 20"



They sorta look like a hybrid of Kinesis and IForged.

Thanks Seize,

Can your boy provide any details for us? Are they forged? Price, offsets, etc etc?

My friend just ordered a set of DPE R20's - High polish 19 x 8.5 in the fronts and 19 x10 in the rear. He should have them within 3 weeks so I'll be sure to take alot pics to share with you guys. Oh and BTW they are 3 pc forged.

Here's a pic of the what the wheel looks like...I'm diggin' it

They kinda look like a hybrid design of the Kinesis K29 and the IForged Seneka

Yeah, since they are custom. They do make fitments for our cars. I called one of their authorized dealers and got a quote for my little bro (by the way, he has a first gen GS).

So how did they want for the 20" staggered with brushed aluminum finish? (most little brothers copy the big brother )
