What's going on everyone,

Up for sale are my 11 month old DPE wheels and Nitto Neogen tires. They have less than 2500 miles on them and are in very good condition. I bought these wheels through SonicMS last January (18th to be exact) and got them in the first week of June (that's a 5 month wait!). I used these for the summer months and took them off last August. I put them back on in April, driving them only when it was sunny and warm, and they are currently on my car. My car itself only has 8500 miles, so as you can see they've barely been used and still even have the "new" tire markings.

Here's some info on the wheels..
Brand: DPE
Model: GT7
Options: Brushed Aluminum, Rivetless, Stepped Lip, Polished Barrels, Signature Series DPE center caps
Size: 20x8"F, 20x9.5"R
Mileage: <2500 miles

Flaws:
-The front passenger wheel was slightly curbed (around an inch big, I'll take pics soon).
-Driver side wheel is slightly bent, but is holding air just fine (will also take pics soon).

Specs on tires:
Brand: Nitto
Model: Neogens
Sizes: 225/30/20F, 245/30/20R
Mileage: <2500 miles

I was looking to get $3200 shipped anywhere in the continental US. I'd prefer a local sale so the buyer can inspect and see the wheels before purchasing. I'm also willing to help mount the wheels onto the car to see if they'll fit, and if they don't, get a proper spacer that will.

With this price, I will:
-Fix the bend in the driver side wheel
-Buy any spacer required to fit your vehicle (i.e. the E500 has bigger brakes, so it will need a 10mm spacer)

For W203 owners: These will clear the 4pot brakes on the C230k's but not the 2pot's on the 06' and '07's. I used a 5mm spacer and they fit beautifully and flush. I also have coilovers and they WILL clear the spring on the coils.

The wheels still shine like new, and I will polish them up before sending them out, and package them as best I can so I know they arrive safely to you.
The wheels/tires retail for around 6k. Here's your chance to get some DPE's for half the price with no waiting period!

Oh, and reason for sale is that I'm going through financial troubles in this horrible economy. And because of this I'm forced to sell my all time favorite wheels.

Trust me guys, you'll get nothing but stares and compliments on these wheels. The design is pretty classic and can really go with almost any type of body style, whether it is a W203, W209, W211, W220, W140 anything really!

Please let me know if you are interested, and if there are any questions at all please do not hesitate to ask!

This is one of the best looking wheels i've seen on c (and I'm sure it'll look good on other cars too).

Would these wheels fit on your car without the spacers?

You know the offset?

Thanks

 

Thanks for the compliment bro! Unfortunately like HRE, DPE also don't release their offsets.

As for them fitting on your car, do you have the 4-piston calipers or the 2-piston calipers? DPE said they will fit the 4-piston caliper perfectly, but the 2-piston calipers apparently are a tad bit bulkier, so you'll need a 5mm spacer to clear the caliper. The 5mm spacer also helps clear coilover springs if you have them or plan to lower in the future.

In the price I will include a pair of hub-centric spacers (whatever size is required to make them fit) so these wheels will be ready to bolt on with no setbacks.

I am willing to help the buyer in any way possible. I want these wheels to go to a good home, and they'll make any car look amazing!

damn sexy.

3.2k is just a little bit out of my bank account right now.

Haha. I'll keep an eye on this topic =]

For some reason, I think rivets would've made this wheel look even better!
*but to each his own*

 

Thanks bro! Let me know if things change for you, they'd look sick on your w203.

 

Seen your car a couple times. Really clean, love the brushed finish. GL with the sale!

 

Thanks bro! Really appreciate the support.

 

I'm also considering trades + cash for some 18's or 19's. Let me know what you have to offer.

 

how much do these weigh?

 

I can go and weigh them when I get off of work, although the weight will be with tires if that's okay? :dunno:

Thanks for your interest,

Bump...I am somewhat negotiable on the price. Send me your offers!

 

Will these fit on a 04 Sl55 AMG. What would it take for them to clear the brakes and how big of a lip in front and back?

 

Thanks bro!

I'll call DPE and ask them what is required to make them fit. I'm guessing some 5mm spacers for the front, and maybe 10mm in the rear. Whatever it is, I'll gladly buy you the proper spacers to make them work properly.

The lip's are aprox. 1.5" front, and the rears are about a 3".

Oh, and here's what they look like on an E500.

 

 

Bump

I was always wondering how your ride looked up close. Looks good

Car looks Sexy, what rims are you going to get next?

Are you parting out your car?

 

Neve rmind I saw your sig

How much for the Eisenman and Euroteck Lip?

 

Thanks for the compliment bro! I'm gonna get some cheap 18's or 19's and call it a day. And yep, I'm parting my car.

Both are actually already spoken for from locals, all I have left is the system which is pending, the coilovers which I may keep, and my CF diffuser, but I'm afraid that won't come off.

The wheels are pending sale!

 

Hey,

what offsets are these wheels? Thanks in advance

wizo

 

check your pm dude... thx

 

PM replied!

 

How much does the CF diffuser go for? Do you know anyone who is selling it?

You have some pics of it?

Thanks

 

I believe it goes for $600 new from Euroteck, but Euroteck themselves sell it on ebay for $400.

As for pics, I'm not at home right now but can upload them a little bit later for you.

 

Thanks, will you be selling yours?

Thanks for the info I never knew Euroteck sells CF Diffusers.

 

Oh wait, I read your reply quick at work, I thought you were talking about the CF lip.

My apologies! The diffuser is custom. I ended up buying a CF sheet from NA Motorsports, and had my shop trace and apply it to my rear diffuser. The CF sheet had automotive strength adhesive that kept the diffuser in place. I really liked the CF diffuser with the fins, but it only looked right if you had a quad, the single looked off. So I took the matter in my own hands.

Here's a link to the CF sheet..

It's actually cheaper than what I paid.

I'm talking to my shop to see if I can remove it without the paint coming off, if so I will be selling it.

Here's some pics...

 

Thanks for the info

Looks good Ya, your right with the fins a single will look kind of off.
