They're not stamped because they are custom. They are custom made for the car they are going on.

Blaah... I hate that kind of stuff, custom made my ***...

At least for me it tells a lot more about the wheels when I hear the widths and offsets than somebody tells me "hey these are custom made, they are the best fit"...

HRE wheels are truly custom fit per application. We have recommended fitments for each vehicle, but if the customer wants a particular fitment we will certainly accomodate it.

Mambodave: please PM all of the numbers on the backpad and i will look up the order to figure out the offsets.

thanks,

Chad

Every set of wheels I've ever ordered from HRE (or Fikse or others) I've specified size (17,18,19)...... width 8.5 - 12......offset 25 - 45........and everything else from lip type to finishes to centers.
I'm pretty sure that no one else on the planet has exactly what I have
Sure.....some just say I have an 03 Turbo.....send me what you kinda think I need ......if it works for you, fine.

Every custom wheel co has a formula for measuring. Just get a tape and measure from fender to wheel hub. You can state your own offset, or take what they give you . It's very easy to do. Be careful, there is a dumb end of a tape measure.
