Default Are HRE wheels any good?

I'm finially looking to buy a new set of wheels and I came across HRE wheels on tbyrne.com. They look nice and have the style I like. Also come in several finishes and have the size I want, 18" diameter and 11" width. Also the price on them isn't to bad at all. Any comments or help will be appreciated.

HRE's are basically the top of the line rim available for these cars.

I would have no problem installing them onto my car.

... price isn't bad at all???, what do you consider high for a rim?

The prices shown are PER WHEEL, not a set, so a set of 4 will run you around $4000-5000 depending on finish.

Not a bad price huh. One wheel is going to cost you more than my wheels and tires combined.

HRE are great, among the best ones out there, but on the pricey side.
Fikse is another make that is up there on the top ones.

look into www.jlinewheels.com They have been around for the Euro guys, and now moving into the drift scene. But, they have 2pc and 3pc wheels in just about any configuration you would want. The price isn't too bad either.

Yeah, i know the guy who owns the company. But, i don't get discounts. I'm actaully looking at a set 17x9.5's and 11's from them. I figure about 2g's for some nice forged wheels, can't beat that.

those look nice.

Na$ty-TA, lol. Guess the 370 98 TA's own this thread.

Too bad my 370 is just a build number right now. Maybe that will change in the future
