Thnx everyone for the comments.. It's been a tough decision.. I mean if the manufacturer of the wheels is telling me I will need modification to my fenders to fit 19x10 +55mm with 275/30.. then I'd rather follow what they think is the best set-up for our cars... although I know my initial set-up should be fine.. but maybe the wheel design might play a role like the tire choice?

JeffDL

I've used 3 or 4 different tire brands now 275/30's and haven't had any issues. HRE is being conservative they want them to fit right out of the box which is understandable. not push the limits.

either way it's going to be awesome. P40's are my favorite wheel I'm looking to get them for my boss 302 mustang that should be here for the summer.

Roswell

Thx Jeff, ur the man when comes to wheels.. I remember ur help in the past when came the time to buy my SV1.. And they fit perfect.

Roswell

Oh, Jeff I found a pic on facebook of the exact same set up I ordered (HRE recommendation).. Same brushed with tinted clear finish, but it's on a black C63.. Only difference is he is running P40s, not P40. I will post pics tonight after work so u can tell me ur opinion on the flushness. His tires are also 245/35f & 275/30r.

Here is the P40s in brushed with tinted clear on a C63 (19x8.5f & 19x9.5r):

SICK!!
These are gonna look amazing on your car Meng.
Cant wait till you mount these bod boys on.

Roswell

^^ lol... thanks Karl! I cant wait too.. I keep searching for more pics of the finish & sizes cuz with all the money spent on them... I want to be happy with the end result & want them to function as good as OEM wheels.

_AMG_

HRE produces some of the best wheels on the planet. You will definitely be happy with the end result.

Roswell

Happy to hear that Karl! BTW, do u daily drive ur car on the HRE? Any problems at all?

_AMG_

Yup, I sure do.
Absolutely no problems, I just make sure my tires are at 36psi.

JeffDL

those do look outstanding.

If you need new lug bolts I can get a set out to you right away in any configuration or in a different color too.

Thnx for your help RPM, but I will be using my OEM lugs as they are fairly new & unused.

If I dont like the look, I will sure contact you to get new ball seated lugs.

Jycke

Looking forward to see the rims on your car as well Roswell Nice to see different finishes. If i'm not mistaken the brushed P40 isn't that common? At least i haven't seen many around.

Roswell

Thx Jycke for the kind words.. I believe the brushed finish with tinted clear coat is around 300$ more.. Maybe that's why it's not very common. But I've seen a lot of P40 in brushed.

Roswell

Update: I got confirmation from HRE that my wheels are built & ready to ship. Yikes!! All I can say is Lon @ HRE has been great with communication & the engineers at HRE factory are working fast... only 2 weeks to build my custom wheels, that is fast!

They will be shipped to Wheel Boutique first as I got a wheel & tire package from them. Stay tune for pics soon.

Roswell

Sry for bumping my thread all the time.. Wheels r in being shipped to my house.. Stay tuned for the pics!

Looking forward to the pics! What did you do with the set in your pics? Selling or holding on to them?

theturkster

I know what you mean! Mine got shipped out today and shipping is gona take 3-5 days they might even get stuck in customs for a day or two I cant wait for them to get here.

Ill post pics of mine when i get them.

Roswell

I'm keeping my set in the sig, I always like to have an extra set in case. I also love the look of the staggered 3pcs. U can't have the same effects on a 1pc set.. Unless u go concave.

Roswell

Same here, it should take 4-5 days if not stuck at Customs. What finish & specs did u get? Post pics here when u get them.

_AMG_

Hahaha did they say which day your wheels are arriving?

Roswell

5 days ago, they were shipped from HRE from CA to WB in FL.. And today I got a call from WB & an email with tracking about the wheel getting shipped to me. I can say HRE & WB has excellent communication & fast service.

No eta yet, but was told 4-5 days if no delays at Customs. I couldn't get a pic of the actual wheel yet.. Such a tease for real! Lol
