19" HRE M40 :PICS:
I received my HRE M40's today from Showroom Motorsports. Thought I would share some pics with you guys. I will take some more pics once I buy the tires and have them mounted on the car.
Special thanks to Kirill and Brain @ Showroom Motorsports for providing me with outstanding service and this great set of wheels.
Here are the pics...Enjoy.

The rims look like they are bending outward... is it your camera's lens? If they are concave in, then they will look awesome!!

I was thinking either the stock lugs or the black lugs from RPM.
I will either be running Michelin PS2 or Hankook tires. 235/35/19 front & 265/30/19 rear or 245front, 275 rear. Haven't decided yet.

Hey guys I just had a few questions....
1.) Will the stock lugs work with these wheels or do I need different length lugs?
2.) I am thinking of lowering the car later on with H&R springs, Will a 245 front & 275 rear tire be suitable for this or should I go with 235 front & 265 rear?
I am going with Hankook tires so they don't run very wide like the Michellin or Continental tires. Im guessing the 245-275 Hankook combo will be ok but im not 100% sure. Any feedback would be greatly appreciated.

I'll be running 245/35's with a +35 offset in the spring. my car is lowered on H&R's I've only mocked them up as we still have over 2 feet of snow on the ground but I looks like it should be fine. My 19x10 +50 rear with 275/30 even looks fine. Well maybe afer some fender rolling.

Thanks Yazid!! As soon as I get the tires im gonna mount them ASAP. lol
Thank you.
Thank you
I have always like the Monoblocks. I have seen the similar style P40 wheels on the M3 and they look really good. I will post up pics as soon as I have them mounted.

First off, great looking wheel- owned two sets concurrently and still have the P40's on the 997TT
Check your weights on those wheels--- but I know for a fact that the benz molds are more heavy duty than those of the Porsche and BMW's and thus have more weight.
I have had two sets of P40's, one for the 997TT and one for the now sold E92 M3- I was considering M40's too but they were heavier. I think you might be ok since you are running 19's.
FYI my 19x8.5 P40's weigh 21lbs and the 19x11 weigh 24 lbs--- 997TT
The 20x9 and 20x10.5 E92 P40's weight slightly over 25lbs each.
