Here is a COMPLETE list of wheels HRE has instock premade. If you want more info on the sizes and colors, email me. Just trying to help out my guys at HRE move some of these! Most often HRE makes wheels to order, they wanted to try to do some premade and see how it went...

Thanks!

As long as you run a radial/radial combo or bias ply/bias ply combo you're OK, you should never mix the 2. Those tires are radials, so it will be fine, they're what I was running on the Benz when you came out in March.

Yeah, they basically assemble three piece modular wheels.

Its great because they can offer a huge variety of fitments - as the actual wheels have a variable width (modular design). The final process involves assembling the modular center with the modular wheel. Great!

The best part of the process is that it drastically lowers production costs.

Now the part that really confuses me is how a wheel produced in this manner can be more expensive than a 1 piece cast or even forged wheel.

Anyone care to clear my confusion?

Emeka right?, what does this have to do with this post.... if you dont understand how a 3 piece wheel cost so much as each center is machined 1 at a time, they do not make a 100 of these so machine time, second the hoops both inside and outside are not cheap and assembly. Your talking cost on wheels being expensive, why is a 996TT Exhaust $5K?

Are they just assembled in the U.S. or are the components made here and put together here.
