Are those 19x8.5? That is the size rims I'm planning to get. Can you let us know if you're having problems with rubbing? I'm looking to drop 1.5" or 1.7", but not too much. Sweet wheels by the way.

[redlabel81]

Looks nice! A little to much backlight on most of the shots tho. :)
Clean and black.

looking great man[up]
hope to see that beaty around

[felondnb]

looks cool - nice choice of wheels - like it [:)]

[Nobuttsechs4me]

wheels look great. I love what DPE has to offer!!!

[minameismud]

love the stance! don't lower it any more - everything looks perfectly proportional.

[Latin Audi]

Damn you and your beautiful scenery. Wheels/stance look great.

[ggg20t]

holy shit that is nice - you have inspired me to just pull the trigger and do an s-line bumper conversion

Those wheels are gorgeous

[Koby]

That looks great!

[ataylor]

wheels are fuckin hot, as is the rest of the car [up] sick day for pix w. the wind spreading the clouds like that

[jriddle11]

[slimmj0k3r]

hmm....maybe a tad bit lower. [wrench]

looks really good though

[Bllzll]

looks great, but i feel like i cant really see the wheels that well. maybe get some more pictures showing off the wheels a little better?

[nnnick]

sick wheels and car, nice shots too!

[europaisch]

Wow those wheels look great. Good call on the no plate. The drop looks perfect to me.

See you 'round the bay.

yeah im no photographer.. i just got the wheels on, suspension dropped, and headed over to the place.. wanted some shots nicer than camera phone, but i obviously lack the experience for a legit shoot .. thx for the pshop advise tho [up] might play around with the levels later

19x8's actually .. 235/35/19 PS2's .. im currently sitting at 24.5" fender to ground (front) and 24.75" (rear) if i am not mistaken.. i rub on body roll and medium-large bumps/dips... still need to get sways tho, so ill be able to go lower once i solve the body roll problem some more

thanks for the kind words guys! [up]

[krew53]

Wheels look awesome!!! Nice choice!!

[DarkNite]

I had that same problem with the B5 as well. You might have to get the fender wells rolled a little. I was hoping not to do that, but I'll do what I have to. Thanks for the info.

no prob! i really want it lower, so ill be looking into rolling the wells.. might have to wait until my next set of tires, run more stretch, and drop it then

[Alkemix]

Wow... I've never really enjoyed any DPE wheel designs and thought they were just not a good compliment to our cars, but this has instantly become one of my favorite wheels for our cars. The contrast of the silver against the black is sick too.

[ataylor]

in case you do plan on pshopping some of your pictures -- there's a bunch going on with that quick one I did, aside from levels

create 2 more versions of the image -- bring out the 'highs' in one, and bring out the "lows" in another, save-out individually, then use photoshop's merge to HDR feature to create an HDR merged image.

then if you want to tweak it more, you;ll need to convert it back to a 16bit image, as your HDR merged version will now be 32 bit

then I played with levels some more, curves, saturation, etc.

yes it really only takes 5 minutes :) then again, I do put 40+ hours a week into the creative suite [>_>]

[Huminator]

Very nice glad you are enjoying them! Someday I'll have to get another set.
