wheels

those are deffenately some nice looking wheels, and at 19lbs thats lighter than stock so you could say these are a performance part. Not enough weight savings for me though, unfortunately its hard to find a wheel that looks this good, but weighs only 16lbs like the ssr comps do . Too bad for me

Yeah the SSR are comps are nice too... But for some reason these DPE's just appeal to me alot more and the weight is to die for :p

DPE is a very distinguished company. Popular with some of the more expensive cars. Mostly German cars...

No, w/o Tires...

Dpe is very popular among Bmw-Porsche and Audi guys... Volks dont weigh any less then these DPE GT7's, if anything the ones i was looking at were weighing in at around 23lbs.
