"HRE unleashes a direct descendant of the wheel that won the 2010 Grand-Am GS Championship, now lighter, stronger and better ever and ready for competition.

HRE Performance Wheels has unveiled a NEW forged one-piece motorsport wheel for 2011, the R40 Monoblok™ for dedicated track and the highest performance street cars. This mesh-style, 6061-T6 aerospace grade aluminum wheel is a direct descendant of the custom-built model used by Fall-Line Motorsports to WIN the 2010 Grand-Am GS Championship in BMW M3 race cars, but now it’s available in a brand new mesh style for a wide range of applications and lighter than ever (17.5 lbs and up).

HRE R40 wheels are precision engineered to stringent German TÜV specifications in HRE’s TÜV-approved manufacturing facility for ultra light weight, high strength and unsurpassed quality. Available finishes include Satin Black, Satin Silver, Brushed with Clearcoat and more. The R40 is available in 18” diameter and widths ranging from 8.5” – 12” in Multi-lug and Center Lock versions. HRE engineers know the race can be won in the pits, so be sure to note the rattle-gun friendly open dish shape for fast wheel changes!

All HRE wheels are engineered to minimize unsprung mass and rotational inertia for optimal acceleration, handling and braking performance. Each wheel is built-to-order at HRE’s 60,000 square foot manufacturing facility for the ultimate performance solution and custom-tailored wheel buying experience."

Weight savings of this "new" P40 vs same size previous gen P40?

nice!!!! can i trade mine?? lol...

I wish they would have come out with this wheel two years ago....

I don't think they made P40's in 18"... these R40's are only 18".

Look great though. :) Are they expensive?

Great track wheels, can you pm price

Do you have the weights for 18x9 and 18x12 for GT3RS application?
Please PM me pricing.
Thank you

Ranger

they look great

Please PM me price, weights, and offsets of the 18's for a 2002 996TT. Any other finishes besides what is pictured? Thanks.

I will get official weights and PM all pricing requests as well. Be right back.

You know price is all very subjective. Here I believe you get what you pay for. You get HRE quality and engineering for under $4900 for a set.

all Pm's sent

very different, these wheels are only available in 18" while the P40's were 19" so the difference will be atleast 6 pounds less

Awesome!!:D
Of course they'll clear the PCCB up front?
