DPE just has a better overall look and finish than D2Forged IMO, although those are probably the best set that D2 has to offer out there today...

Dpe's been around for 5+ years with over 20 yrs of experience, D2' used to be a retailer for all these wheel companies and still is, but just recently decided to manufacture. Nothing wrong with that, but they are just another new company, and honestly the brushed liquid clear doesn't look all that great in these pics, maybe its just the pics though.

Maybe because that's not the brushed finish, the wheel on the porsche is called satin silver???

This is Brushed:




BTW Besides these two wheels having 10spokes they are two totally different designs. Please research before you make certain comments

Radenergie: Starts thick and goes thinner at the ends of the spoke with a slight crease in the spoke. Absolutly no detailed milling on the Register of the wheel. Also all rivets are exposed





D2FORGED VS5- A much thinner straight ten spoke design with a consistant thickness from the center to the lip. There is no creases in the spoke and look at the detail this wheel has on the register from above standard milling.
