19" Steplip | DPE Signature Series

19" steplip is now available on all Signature Series (in addition to 20" steplip)

Weight is dependent on design.
The 19" S20 steplip weighs 23lbs per wheel
The 19" SL5 steplip weighs 21lbs per wheel

With titanium rivets, you can save an additional 1lb per wheel.
The 19" S20 steplip weighs 22lbs per wheel
The 19" SL5 steplip weighs 20lbs per wheel

For those conscious about wheel weight, DPE has further engineered a technique to make the wheel even lighter (in addition to the use of titanium rivets) without sacrificing structural integrity.
The 19" S20 steplip weighs 21lbs per wheel
The 19" SL5 steplip weighs 19lbs per wheel


For comparison, some companies with 1pc forged weigh in at 23lbs.

The advantages of our 3pc forged 19" steplip over 1pc forged.
- depending on design, the wheel can weigh equal or less
- with 3pc you are not limited in offset and applications
- if the wheel is damaged, those certain components can be replaced instead of an entire wheel.







19" Steplip ST7








In brushed

Those wheels look beautiful. Great post too. But that A3 looks hilarious. I'm sorry (and my wife drives one just like it). Those wheels are waaaaay too wide for those tires. You can literally see the lip of the OTHER SIDE's rear wheel on that one pic. How funny. That size of a lip isn't worth it when you can't fit the right size of rubber on them. So funny. Gorgeous wheel though.

Agreed. The customer insisted on this look and provided the offsets. This of course was not our recommendation, but apparently some of the VW and Audi community like this European poke.

Thank you for your input.

That's weird, I swear I posted about this yesterday. Did someone delete it? Anyway, I really like these wheels.

Thanks everyone for the compliments. We recently released the 19" steplip and unfortunately, none of our Porsche customers have yet to send us any photos. Hopefully, we will have something to post here soon.


Thank you. For faster and more efficient replies, please email me direct at jojo@dpe-wheels.com.
