roughly anywhere from 6000-8000 depending on what options you want on them.


or you can buy my HRE 547 20s with tires for $3200 shipped

HRE makes incredible wheels but are pricey. May want to consider I-Forged too, they are similar to HRE but less $ and still an excellent wheel.

iForged supposedly uses the same materials as HRE but the quality of the end product is not the same. The weld on the iForged 2 piece wheels looks like total a s s, their rivets are insanely heavy, from speaking to a few installers they don't balance out very well either.

High polish finish from HRE holds up better the the iForged as well. If you care about customer service either find a great iForged dealer or stay away from them.

HREs are pretty dam pricey, but I wouldn't get an iForged wheel as a substitute to HRE. You should want an iForged wheel or you didn't get what you really wanted, which sucks when you're dealing with customized wheels.

If you want to see some various HRE wheels, finishes and options go check out shoreline motoring in HB. HRE sent a wheel in the model, size, and color there for me to see when I was inquiring about some wheels.

Yeah I-Forged are no HRE's but, I didn't think they were that bad. I've been to Shoreline, it is a real nice shop, lots of high end wheels on display and the guys there were pretty cool. Good idea to work with a local shop on wheels and tires if you need future balancing, repairs, etc.

yea. ive decided to go 19". i want show but performance is also very important and ive heard some really negative comments concerning 20s and overall performance compared to 19s.

I dont think i want to go with Iforgery. ive heard terrible things about their customer service, actually ive heard nightmares about that. so ill deff. be gettin some HREs.

thanx for the comments guys
