How long did you have to wait to get those wheels from the time you ordered them? I have the same set coming to me but its going on a 2000 W210. I have the fronts but they messed up the rears so i'm still waiting to put them on.

It took six weeks to get mine and HRE messed up. i had to send back the rears because they were hitting the brakes. I hope they can get they're **** together. I'm not real happy with them right about now.

You're lucky. they've had two of my wheels for a least a week now and they can't even give me a timeline. Every now and again I keep thinking whether I should have gone with some IForged. For the money i paid I'ma keep talking **** about HRE until they get it right. Funny how they can be so light about things after they get paid. I paid for these rims when they wanted the money and this is what i get. All i know is I got a bull**** excuse about "once in a while this happens and we'll take care of it in a timely manner" What the hell does that mean? i'm just glad you had better luck. now that i'm looking around i find that more a few people have had problems with HRE. Can't really blame the vendors, HRE--you all supposed to know you your ****!

HRE I believe is the best wheel manufactuer around. Of course there are going to be a few problems with wheels once in awhile. No one is perfect, but I believe HRE is the one company near perfect. Wheel specs have to be exact, if your wheel dealer sends just a tiny incorrect specification the whole wheel could be wrong, or if you get the wrong offset or want something different from what your car needs. I have an E46 325, and plenty of people who get the size 19x9.5 have to roll the rear fenders because the wheel well isn't large enough to fit a 19x9.5. People automatically blame the wheel maker for the problem, instead of realizing that they did not do enough investigating for the correct wheel size, offset, etc. I am not saying that because you have a problem that it is your fault, and I am not saying that because you have a problem its HRE's fault. Problems do happen occasionally, and with HRE its rare from all that I've heard and known, so I am just backing HRE up, since I have never had a single problem with my wheels, or heard of anyone having a problem. Just my .02 cents...
P.S. SP6NT-get some damn coilovers already.

Yeah i guess you have a point there but when you pay in full for Wheels from one of the leading manufacturers, and have to wait 6 weeks to get them I would expect that they get it right. Sometimes I think I should have just bought another Rolex for what I paid for theses wheels. Okay, so they're fixing the problem but having to wait another 3+ weeks with no certainty that they'll get to me on time and even fit again doesn't make things easy. Put yourself in my position. How you gonna act? You got a fat balance on your card and two wheels that you can't use. Then what?
Problems like this shouldn't happen. Its not like they're new or anything to the game.

Its not hitting the fender, well it does a little but not bad, I know its hitting somewhere else? On the plastic in the wheels well?
