Tony are these two piece or three?

The ones shown above are 2-piece. Both are 18x10 in the photos. The R05-S weighed in at 21 lbs, the R16 was 22 lbs. If you want 3-piece, they have their Signature Series. www.DPE-Wheels.com
CRead01, the centers are hand brushed and then painted with clearcoat to keep the look. Without clearcoat, they would oxidize and look dull after a few weeks.

I was looking around DPE's web site and found this one:
LS5L 22982
I'm just curious, what would two 18x8.5 and two 19x10 with chrome centers and chrome lips cost?

Not sure those are available in 1/2-inch increments (2-piece) but I'll check with DPE. Should know something Monday when they are open, thanks.

I can ask about anodizing, but I know they offer them in painted centers.

Only available in full inch increments. Chrome is not recommended, they suggested having the entire polished wheel clearcoated instead. Polished adds $45/wheel, clear adds $35/wheel
LS5 Wheels, 18x8 fronts and 19x10 rears, polished/cleared, list price $4130, sale price $3555 shipped.

Anodized centers adds $130 per wheel. They cannot guarantee long term finish quality on anodizing however, as it stains or fades with exposure to sunlight or chemicals.

Robert, those R05 wheels look killer. I ordered a brushed set of those without rivets for my '69 coupe. Hopefully they arrive sometime next week. I dig that anodized gray look though!

lol....the sad thing is, is that I'm pretty sure this is already GP discounted pricing and they are still $3500+ a set :crying:
