I prefer the HRE 540Rs (I own a set). However, many on here (after the HRE/PCA track thread) will tell you not to buy them. It's really up to you. The reverse drop center lip is what does it for me.

I'd say look at all of them...HRE, Kinesis, Zone, and Champion are all good street wheels. If you need a price quote let me know, we export to Canada regularly.

Don't forget BBS. They make some incredible wheels both looks and strength wise. Of course they come with incredible prices too.

Are you looking for street, track or both?

What is more important, looks or weight?
