Sponsor Group Purchases - DPE Forged Wheels - Group Purchase!

In order to help get DPE's name out there in the GM world, I've asked them for a group purchase for F-bodies. They have built several wheels for Corvettes (I had the first set on my C6) but no 4th gen F-bodies yet. These are top-quality 2-piece forged wheels.

Price: $2748 per set of four, plus shipping (this is 20% off of list)
Only sizes available: 18x9 fronts and 18x10 rears
Any "R-Series" wheel design. All are the same price. www.DPE-wheels.com
Standard finish is silver powdercoated face with polished lips
Wheel weights are typically 20-23 lbs each, depending on design.
Rear wheel lip size is about 3 inches.

Options:
Wheels can be built with or without rivets, your choice.
Finishes Available: polished, brushed, silver, gunmetal, or black powder coat

Powder coated silver faces (standard finish) $0
High polished faces - add $180 per set
Powder coated gunmetal or black faces - add $200 per set
Brushed Aluminum w/ clearcoat faces - add $300 per set

I am looking for a minimum of 5 orders. You will need to place a non-refundable $1,000 deposit to place the order. The rest will be due prior to delivery. If you do not have the funds available at the time of delivery, your deposit will be lost and the wheels will be resold at the pricing above. Typical delivery times are 4-6 weeks upon order date. All wheels will be ordered as soon as we receive 5 orders. Group Purchase pricing ends March 31st.

Here are some of their more popular designs:

do you have the weights of the wheels? each style and size

those R16 look really nice they will fit a f-body correct? any spacer needed

(2) 18x9 (2) 18x10 still standard 2748?

how deep is the lip on the 18x10s?

if I can get (2)18x9 (2)18x10 all high poished NO COATING how much shipped to 79606

sorry about all the ?s, currently deployed and every limited internet access hahaha cant even get on the DPE site

frisky, your cost would be $2748 + $180 for polishing + $100 shipping = $3028 total.

Polished wheels have no coating, they are bare polished. No spacers needed, these are custom built for your vehicle.

vdubbing, I've requested weights from DPE. I'll post what I find when I get it.

Update:

18" wheel weights are typically 20-23 lbs each, depending on design.
Rear wheel lip size is about 3 inches.

+1 DPE great company. These wheels are awesome guys I run a 20" set on my car and literally beat the shit out of them. No dents or damages and balances without a problem.

This is the SR20 in 20x9.5" in the front and 20x11 in the rear..

will be getting back to you soon sir

Do you have any pics without the rivets? I could not find any pics without them on their website.

I wouldn't mind picking up a set of either one of these wheels. Too bad they're not part of the offer.

Ditto, R05-S with no rivets. I hate rivets. Source for any of the above with smooth finish?

What do you mean smooth finish? Polished?

MyFast70, those are the Signature series. They are only available in 19" and larger, and are 3-piece wheels. Prices are quite a bit higher due to that. If you go to their website, browse the Showroom and look at various cars. The BMW and Mercedes pages are the most full, you can see all sorts of wheels in those. www.dpe-wheels.com

Here are some black R05 wheels without rivets:

nice looking wheels! if I wasnt in the middle of building an engine I'd be all over them. Great pricing and the size I run too.

Will the 18x10 take a 315?

I wouldn't recommend a 315 on an 10" wheel, the sidewalls bulge too much. I'd run 295s

Good looking wheels! If I wasn't aiming for a paint job this year, I'd be all over them.

bump!
