DPE????
Hey guys im out hunting for wheels I really like HRE, forgiato and GFG wheels.... But I think its crazy for me to drop 4 ta 5k on some wheels right now... So I wanted some thoughts on DPE???? They look like great wheels and was wondering what type of experiences anyone has had with them....
My car is jet black so I wanted Black with a chrome lip and I found these... http://www.stealthauto.com/Products/...EELS-LS15.aspx Im guessing per rim.... cus I havent found much luck trying to stay close to 2k.. Im looking for 19s.... With at least a 3 ta 4in lip in the back....

Not really sure how a deep dish wheel will work on a 1er. Maybe on a 1M. I just don't see the stance on a 1er supporting a deep dish look. Anyone have pics to post with deep dish wheels?

DPE is top notch in terms of quality, looks and finish. Definitely recommend them if you like the deep dish 3 piece forged look.
Here is itsthechuck's car with 18" DPEs |

[/QUOTE] Changed my mind for something like these. I do like those. What size is the lip on those. The OP wanted 3" - 4" lip. That seems too deep, but that is just my opinion. miiipilot

Not sure the exact specs on those wheels but they look to be about 1-1.5". It is tough to get a deep dish on the 1er due to the high offsets required to prevent rubbing.

miiipilot[/QUOTE] DAMN those look GREAT... I want Black with a Chrome lip... I just through out the 3 ta 4 in lip thing to see if it was doable.. I want to make the wheels worth my while cus I have the M sport ones and I want to go wider in the rear... Also can u take out the center cap out of the DPE wheels??? and replace it with the BMW center caps??? PS thanks for the pics....
