Moti, if you are going to hijack a thread, at least get your facts straight. Im gonna go out on a limb and say all 4 of your rims probably weigh 102lbs WITHOUT tires.

350trackz,

If you have like 6K to throw at those HREs, I wonder why you bought the Iforged in the first place. I agree, the 840r series is probably the nicest line up of wheels available and I would rather have them than any wheel. Thats not really a fair comparison for your Iforged.

Well, the price I got on the 840s is around $4754 in standard finish (polished is extra which I'd probably go for). As for why I got the iForged, I got a heck uv a deal on them. I traded my Track wheels and $1250 cash for the iForged with tires (the wheels only had 600 miles on them). So, that's why I got the iForged ... I'm sure just about anyone would jump on that deal !!!

My 1st choice when I was wheel shopping was the HRE 545R. Then I got the deal on the aeros that look identical. The mesh designs have always caught my eye, but never saw them on a car. As more and more get them, they look pretty sweet. I like the look of the Aeros, I am just not "blown away" by them and thus the search for a new set of wheels .... maybe.

The majority opinion seem to fall towards keeping the iForged over the Racing Hart ... and the HRE seems to be slightly over the iForged. Being the designs are similar between the HRE & RH, I am guessing quality is reigning supreme here.

Still undecided, so feel free to keep the opinions coming ...

As for the Rojas ... ummm ... NO

Everyone tries to underestimate shipping weight. It's cheaper.

I like all 3 of your choices, but the mesh will be a lot harder to clean.

btw, I ordered 1 replacement iforged on 10/31, and they just told me its at the original clearcoater place, but since they are moving, it will be at least 2 more weeks til they ship it. I would have paid the extra for HRE's had I known at the time, what I know now.

2003z ... I got the iForged simply due to the awesome deal. My original desire was the HRE 545R (looks the same as our Aeros). I have been trying for 2 months to get valve stem caps !!! Based on this alone, I may get the HRE 545Rs if I decide to not go mesh. I like the look, the service just SUX ... hint hint Vince !!!
