I've heard that most of these forged companies come from the same place (iForged, DPE, HRE, etc..) I think the only thing that varies from one to the other is the name, and thats about it. You could get all those wheels by DPE, HRE, or iForged, so just choose what name you want I guess..

DCR are not cheap at all. They are over 3K for a set. That's spendy!

very good quality wheels, yet because their volume is small in comparison to the big names (iforged, dpe, hre, bbs....) the prices are quite high...$4428 for a standard 19" staggered fitment (W/O TIRES) is a bit pricey!!!

+1 I think there are only two plants that make all of these wheels!

i know the owner of DCR Forged. He is a stand up guy. He is also the owner of www.thewheelsupply.com which is pretty decently famous locally.

Their wheels are pretty top notch. Definitely comparable to iF or DPE. But I thikn they are all manufactured in the same places lol

They look like great wheels. How does everyone know they come from the same manufacturer? Has DPE, iForged, HRE, and DCR confirm this?

Not all the centers come from the same manufacturer. There are tons of machinists out there that cnc machine centers for all the forged wheel companies out there.

The only similarities are the components such as the inner & outer for a 3 piece, and the barrell for the 2 pc. Oh, the blank center forging might be the same, but you can purchase the blank center disks from a distributor.

But as far as it goes they are not all manufactured at the same place.

pm me for more questions......
