Default Anyone know anything about DPE wheels?

I am interested in the DPE 10 wheel, but I am not familiar with the brand. Anyone have any ideas on the company or how good the wheels are? It says they are forged, but I can't seem to find a manufacturers website anywhere. Any help is appreciated. Thanks

This is all I've got:

http://www.dpengineering.cc/

Looks like they may have been in conflict with an engineering consultant company of the same name, so the website is hard to find.

The quality on the wheels are similar to Iforges, Jlines, DTM Kreuz, or any of those custom wheel makers. I know they're based here in Southern California and I've met someone working from there before, but it's not a well known wheel brand unless you frequent E46fanatics or any of those BMW car forums. I've only seen one 350z (Kinetix sponsored) and another G35 actually sporting DPE's.

Awesome, thanks for the info. I'll have to check out what some of the BMW guys say about the wheels. Thanks

My friend works at DPE.. The wheels are awesome.. can't wait till i can afford a pair hehe! There was some pic of a white Z they fixed up. I'll ask him to send me the link again and post it up. Best way to order is contact them direclty. They'll tailor the rims to your needs

Any suggestions on where to buy them? I am in touch with DPE but they said they have no distributors in my area.
