Today's HRE visit/pics

I popped into HRE wheels today to go over my new C90's sizes/color. I went with 8.5 front 10.5 rear 18's polished lip/Satin gold centers. They run a tight ship there and to see the process is pretty cool. Here are some of my pictures of the visit.

They are going to look great. Nice work and I like the fact that they are 18''. How much will they weight?

Nice! can't go wrong with HRE's. I have some of wheels there for Refurb and couldn't be happier with the service from Vince and crew. Looking forward to seeing them on your ride!

Cool u got a chance to go in there!

AWESOME!!

FWIW, if I didn't go with the 20's, I would have done 18 inch BBS or the Competition 3 piece HRE. I love the look of an aggressive 18inch wheel!

Out of curiosity, why only 8.5/10.5 on the widths? a 9/11 or 9.5/12 would look sick on the 18.

I'm guessing they weight between 19 and 21 lbs. I'm sure someone will chime in like the weight fairy.

I'm really not sure between the 8.5/10.5 or the 9/11. I could go either way but I do know that I'm not running any wider than 235 fronts and 305 rears. so with that said I feel the less rolling mass the better. I think they recommended smaller width due to maybe running slicks and having rubbing issues? I plan on tracking alot.

Why 10.5 rears when stock is 11 and you can have custom offset???
