DPE SL5's in matte black with gloss black lips and chrome assembly bolts
Hey guys I need your input here. I ordered the above mentioned rims and will be coming in this week or early next, they are 20x8.5 and 20x10's. As you know there wheels cost a pretty penny and are custom made for each order, and after waiting nearly 7 weeks have lost interest in them.
I started thinking, should I sell them on here and use that for mod money instead and let a true wheel enthusiast appreciate them or keep them and not mod the beast in terms of go fast mods. It is one or the other. They will be NIB with build sheet and make the E55 by the ultimate cruiser.
Knowing myself, I will mount them and then get buyers remorse as my go fast bug will take over. As soon as they come in I will open the front and rears boxes and take pics for you guys. I need to put some fresh pics up of my car so you can help with the flow of the wheels or just keep my car as is and start the modding.

I would say sell the wheels and get the go fast stuff since I think that is what you really want. You can buy less expensive wheels if you decide you still want wheels. Thats what I did so I can get some go fast mods.

I have gone thus far with cosmetics, I might as well pull it all together with the DPE's. I don't know. I also have a huge sound system going in on Saturday. I will be using the stock Harmon Kardon surround sound and intergrating Bass and with a couple extra components.

I already had the stereo purchased a while back so I am keeping it. I guess I will see what happens as I listed them in the wheel section for sale. If no one picks them up I will see how long I can hold out before mounting them
