Are DPE Wheels a Good Choice For You?
Deciding on the best DPE wheels:
All of DPE’s wheels are original designs, done in CAD (computer aided design), and then forged out of T6 – 6061 Aluminum. This gives them a unique style, while still maintaining some of the highest quality. All wheel styles are prototyped and tested, then manufactured. They exceed the DOT standards.
To Get the best DPE wheels, you will need to decide on three things. A style that fits your’ taste, the finish that you want, and the wheel size that matches your’ car.
1) Style/Model: DPE has 3 series of wheels, the Signature Series, R Series, and the GT/LS. Each of the series has a number of different styles.
2) Wheel Size: Your’ Wheel size will depend on how large you want the wheels to be. Many enthiasts prefer to get larger wheel-sizes (18″ and above), which makes the wheels more expensive. You should also keep in mind that the front and rear wheels will be a different size. Brakes are also a factor in rim size.
3) Finishes: DPE Wheels have a variety of different finishes. These include custom paint jobs and powder coats, glosses, finishes and more. You should look at this carefully, as the different options can completely change the look.
Wait – DPE’s, Iforged or HRE Wheels?

Iforged wheels don’t seem to have gained much traction in the forums. Many haven’t been 100% satisfied with style or customer response. They also don’t seem to have a US manufacturing location, in contrast to DPE and HRE
