Default Finally! HRE 545's are on!!!!!!!! ( New pics added!!!!!)

Well....after years and years of drooling over these rims...and 60 days of waiting for them to be created....they are finally on!

Fronts are 18 x 9.5
Rears are 18 x 10.5

Wrapped in Nitto NT555's


Right now, the tires are not as wide as I want them, but it was all I could afford. I am going to get much wider tires very soon. Sorry for the crappy pics, but it was taken on my iPhone. Will get better pics up soon.

Go to Photobucket.com and load your pictures there. Copy from that site and right click when you post on this site and they should be full size.
