Hello,
I am thinking of upgrading my wheels. I don't know which one to choose, can any one of you help me with my decession making process pls?
Here are my choices,
HRE 890R - 19"
i Forged Essen - 19"
DPE R-20 - 19"

Currently I have sports package on my E92 328i. Which one of these will I be able to put it with out much issues?
Also has any one used these on their vehicles where the weather condition is similar to Calgary?
Thanks

Please stay away from I Forged. Their wheels are inferior and their customer service even worse. Otherwise, you will get more responses if you post pictures of the wheels you are talking about.

Thanks for your feed back.
One of the local vendor also told me the same thing as what you wrote about the i Forged. I will try to get some pics of the wheels.

If you go through a vendor on here who is highly recommended on here (Dan@TheModCity), You wont have any problems with customer service or iForged wheels. So if your looking for iForged , trust me go to him, hes available almost like 24/7. I even contact him sometimes 3am in the morning , haha, he doesnt mind though. I got iForged from him myself too, had a good experience. Everyone these days go through dealers, and thats why a lot of the big companies dont sell direct anymore, because they cant bring customer service to the table. But all the wheels your choosing from are awesome though, Both DPE and HRE!!! You got some good taste my friend - Good Luck

I have to agree. Personally I would not spend that kind of money on wheels, but you can if you want.

[Mark Chen]

I would choose HRE
I don't like the stlye of DPE R20's

[SV Concepts III]

I would go HRE first then DPE second. Both are great wheels but the HRE's are stunning.

Thanks to Every one who gave me your feed back.

if i had the money to spend on hre's wen my car gets here i would def get the ones u r thinkin about. those r my favorite out of all the wheels i have looked at imo

I had a set of Emotions by Iforged come in, and they were beautiful. I had to send back to the vendor as they were a joke with a few issues on the wheels (none related to Iforged). I than spoke with Vince at Iforged and have a set of 19" Daytonas on order. Hope to get them late this month.

Vince was a pleasure to speak with about my experience with the vendor and answered all my questions and also pointed out they have there own unique TPM's now, so if you buy Iforged make sure the vendor knows if you need them or not.

Thanks. i Forged is out of the list. Sofar 4 people (2 Vendors) have asked me to stay away from them. When I went to the local shop here they showed me a i Forged wheel with damages (I have never seen any thing like that before) and they told me that he will never sell i Forged to me. After seeing and hearing all this I have eliminated i Forged from the list so it is now down to HRE and DPE. I really like the HRE's but they a lil bit more than what I wants to spend on the wheels.
If any one has HRE 890R or have got a good price from any of the vendor can you PM that to me pls?

Thanks

You cant go wrong with either DPE or HRE just depends on your style and budget

[S4to335]

I had HRE 545s before...and I ended up selling them...they huge lip made them look much smaller than they actually were..these were 18X8.5s.. They are pretty darn expensive...I would rather get a $4-500 each option wheel and spend money on other mods.

I was in the same situation as you when I was looking for wheels; Difference was that I was looking for 20" wheels. In the end Nick@Jlevisw got the best deal for me. I went with the 593R's. I would highly recommend Nick/Jlevi/Supreme Power-they got the wheels to me in 4-weeks. The fit is perfect and is noticeably lighter than stock. There are some pics in the photo gallery under "Bellevue willsburn park BBQ meet". I'll post better pics when the car is lowered-Thanks again Nick!

Appreciate it man!!!

dan@modcity was great..even though I didn't buy wheels from him (sevas syle was only in 20") he was knowledgeable and extremely courteous..another pleasure was rick at wheelsperformance.com. He ran down a list w/prices and fitments for 10 wheels with me...hope this helps
