DPE Wheels: I Need Help w/ Pulling The Trigger On A New Set!!

What's up MBWorld.org Members,

I need help with a dilemma. I am looking to purchase a new set of DPE Wheels for my Black E55 and am having a hard time in choosing which set to go with. I am hoping that some of you on here can chime in and give me your opinions. Below are a few sets I'm torn between:

DPE ST7: (satin black w/ chrome lip) Either Deep Dish or Stepped Lip



OR

DPE SL5 (Satin Black w/ Chrome Lip) Also either Deep Dish or Stepped Lip



OR Super Concaved

DPE SP-SC5 (Full Satin Black or Satin Black w/ Chrome Lip)



OR

DPE SP-SC16 (Full Satin Black)



I'm looking to order a set tomorrow. All of your opinions will definitely help me out.

Thanks so much in advance!

Rick

I had SL5's a while back and it got a boat load of compliments, I did gloss black lips though:

I also agree with daniel3ooo. I find that the SL5 style wheels are quite common on the E55's. Go for something new!

I'm sponsored by DPE-Wheels so PM me if you need anything I can probably help you out big time on the purchase. There is nothing better than the signature series ST7 step lip wheel

Here it is on my car nothing better than 3.5 inches of lip in front alone
