They are produced by a Canadian company(fast alloys), forged, excellent quality, they weigh 19lbs each (7lbs difference per oem rim)! And the best part is that they cost 1200/set. Figured I'd give them a try, very satisfied so far.
I didn't know Fast wheel made forged wheels? Are u sure about that? 1200$/set is cheap for forged wheels
I'm running the stock setup 235/35/19. 255/30/19... The back is almost perfectly flush due to 45 offset, I think I'm only going with 12mm for the fronts and leaving the rears as is
Anyone know if you can use the OEM TPMS on HRE wheels? Changed my wheels and the tyre fitter said they weren't compatible but I don't know maybe he just couldn't be bothered putting them on...

Yes sounds like he did not want to because he lazy. We always offer you an option weather you want to use your stock ones, purchase after market ones, or the oems which are allot more expensive.
Now, anyone know if these TPMS's are removable and transferable? Got the car booked in later in the week and want to swap them over from the OEM wheels. I imagine it's no problem but just want to make sure.
Alright to answer my own question. Yes the TPMS for FL cars are indeed removable and easily transferable to HRE wheels. Seems the first guy either didn't know or couldn't be bothered.
