I picked up my HRE R40's yesterday and test fitted them today. Here are some pics. The fronts are 18"/9 and the rears are 18"/12. Sorry my cell pics came out sideways:(

I may go to Spring Mountain on Tuesday but I'm down for Button Willow, Big Willow, Laguna, Cal speed you name it. I need to see how she feels now with some stickies and some weight loss.

What are the offsets and tire sizes? Any rubbing?

Offsets are 9 ET +50 front and 12 ET +45 rear

My front slicks are 245/645 which are a little tall and rub slightly on the inner fender well just behind my side marker on my bumper which will be fine. My rear's are 325/650 and also are fine. I did roll my fenders. I hope this helps you.

Looks great!! I was thinking of getting set. How much lighter are they than the P40's?

Not sure but I posted weights above for the R40's with and without tires. I would guess 2-3lbs. each.

Yeah - I saw the weights above. Thought maybe you had looked into it when you bought. I'll contact HRE.

I was seriously considering these for my gt2! They look great. If you don't mind, price?

Thanks

looking good Bucky, those are sick! I can't believe how light those Pirelli slicks are to. I used them at the last lap battle and they were just scrubs from Tatum Racing and they were still 2 seconds faster on the outer loop at miller than my Hoosier r6s
