I wish my photography skills are as good as rolldice's. He's the one that took those pics at our first Bay Area meet. I looked at those pics and looked at my car in real life and I want the one in the pics. hahaha
I'll take some soon...been lagging. Hopefully this weekend. I was actually thinking of getting the trunk finisher and the ACS rear diffuser and then take some pics but that might be a while.

My Ride: 05 530 Titanium Silver/Sexy black
Gotta hold the E-brake on you about DPE over Maya or Lowenhart. In person DPE wheels compared to Maya and Lowenhart doesnt have that quality or finish like you would think it does based on pics online. There are a couple DPE wheels that look nice on paper but in person I think its a different story. Id go Iforged before DPE. Maya and Lowenhart are the cream of the crop in my opinion 
And of course Black radenergies are very sexy too

I like that first comment.Anyway, I've actually seen lots of DPE wheels in person and on BMWs (mostly E46 M3s) and I think they look beautiful and very sporty. I do agree that Maya and Lowenart make great wheels. I just prefer DPEs cause I feel they're more unique, they could be of lesser quality than the other two brands for all I know. I also like the multi-spoke designs of DPE wheels over the standard five spokes.
