ABSOLUTELY gorgeous looking wheel! Would be nice to know the weight and cost.

KA 997TT -- Difference from HRE P40: Both mesh design, but this wheel is 8 forks instead of 7 of the HRE P40. The result is that the spokes are closer together, more paralllel & linear than curvaceous.
The treatment of where the spoke meets the rim and the overall 3D shape seem to be a near duplicate of HRE.
It's very interesting to me how the classic mesh design changes its "character" as you add "forks." All different, and not one is "better" than the other.

The treatment of where the spoke meets the rim and the overall 3D shape, seem to be a near duplicate of HRE.

Would be nice to see it on a car... I love the Gunmetal it looks a bit solid and may even work better than Brushed with the GT Silver plus, I would much rather stay with an 8.5 width in the front and it is nice to see Vorsteiner offering this.
