Its going to cost me about 2500 to get them rebuilt to new and they will be painted a different color as they are anodized now which after speaking to the techs at HRE was probably a bad decision. I will probably not purchase another set of 3-piece HRE's or any 3-piece wheel for that matter. The original cost for these was not too bad. Its the rebuild that i found out is suggested every 25k miles that kills me. Their customer service is top notch though. I am very happy with any and all conversations I've had with them.




nice wheels

HRE won't stand by their work for 3 yrs? sounds like they are not performing as they should.

haven't really read through this thread but I know HRE are Baller wheels period.

BUT is it really true that other companies, such as Iforge, Jline etc. use the same parent company that HRE uses to make their wheels..therefore..same quality just branded under a different name?

As far as I know, only iforged and jline are made by the same company while HRE uses a different factory
