I have the 7.1 and haven't had any issues with them. I've had them for a little over a year, the only issue I see is people stearing more at the car, complementing your car, besides that I think they are one of the best looking wheels on the market.

I'm sorry I cannot remember how much the weighted, +/- 22lbs

For 19" applications, I would recommend one of our C90 Series or P40SC Series. They are very capable street wheels that can be taken to the track. We have several specific centerlock fitments as well.

For 18" fitments, R40 Series or C90 Series are available.

Check out our website at www.HREwheels.com, feel free to contact me directly with any fitment questions to LonM@hrewheels.com

Wheels Boutique, talk to Ben. I was going to go with an HRE set but when I saw the adv1s game over, even my wife that hates car mods was like Do it!!! So I just complied... Btw 19 the look better and perform better than 20s.

How about we do some BBS FI's? I believe there are TWO sets left in stock. PM me for pricing ;)

I bought these for my 08' 997 TT and use them for street/track use with Toyo R888. They are light and strong and not to mention quality and finish is very good. You will pay approx. $1400 for the set of 4 and they are specifically made for the car no spacers or hardware required..... My friends at Cars and Coffee have seen them and cannot believe how nice they are and how good they look, compliments are received often...

I'd like to give you objective data. While I see that many vendors have posted here, no weights have been posted. When I last checked, the OZ wheels were the lightest 5 bolt wheels that were currently available in 19s.

The Manthey MM1s are 18lbs for the front, and 23.4 for the rear.

The GMG 130Rs are 19.8 lbs in front and 22 lbs in GT2RS fitment 19s

OZ Superforgiatas 5 bolts are 8.5 x 19 53mm 15.9 lbs and 12 x 19 51mm 19.8 lbs
