Why HRE wheels are awesome

Out Of Control!
I've seen the clip and it's .
Just curious anyone know what size of HRE's are being used on that Blue Audi RS5? Looks like 20"s or maybe even 21"s? Hard to tell.

14 sets and counting--- my choice for wheels rarely wavers except for 3 sets of BBS LM's back in the day.

my wife bananas! :D
and yea HREs are definitely a cut above. Their service, quality, performance are reasons why they are top for so long and able to command that price.

I can speak to their customer service and passion for their customers first hand. This latest set of wheels I ordered (the S104's) were taking slightly longer than they normally do due to a power outage and SEMA. Alan, HRE president seen in that video personally reached out to me and offered a direct apology and told me that moving forward he would personally oversee my wheel build ensuring that they are delivered in the most expeditious fashion and that he did. HRE is by far the best wheel company out there!!!

Thanks for sharing this awesome video callmiro!! Love my HRE, the details into the craftmenship of the wheel itself is unbelievable.
Look at my P40, not only the face is brushed with tinted clear... but my inner barrels as well... plus the serial number & wheels sizing/offset are etched into the wheels.. I'm very impressed as this is my first set!

Ouch, that's a long wait... I got my wheels in 4 weeks from the day I ordered them to the day I received them at my door... including the transit time from HRE in CA to Wheel Boutique in FL for wheels mounting.

The only problem with really nice wheels... City streets.. okay, so it is not an issue with the wheels itself.. but you pay a crapton of money.. and the streets you drive on destroys them.. This is why I have decided to keep the OEMs on till I sell the car, or move someplace where I do not have to drive through DC everyday.
All 4 of my wheels are absolutely trashed construction, poor road surfaces, milled on ramps next to newly paved roads (almost a 2 inch curb you are basically driving onto parallel to the drop which you have to take at high speed to get into traffic.... this is what has caused most of my rim damage)... I could not justify spending money on wheels that would end up just the same

LOL sort of... Im not even their largest end user. But I am one of their biggest fans and proponents for all the reasons mentioned above. They deliver the best product with the best quality with the best form and function and they toss in superior customer service to add.

Awesome M5 Vic!! That is some meaty sidewalls... good to prevent curb rashes. LOL
P.S Why are the rear calipers so small on the M5?

I now run 30 series as the lowest profile on all my drives... The days of rubber bands have ended with me.

Sick M5 Vic! I went to Shelly BMW this past weekend to Check out the M5 and M6. They were marking them up $20K! $140K for the M6 was a hard sell.
They both looked amazing, and the interior felt very upscale. Definitely an upgrade from the outgoing E-Series vehicles. I was especially impressed with the seats. I have yet to drive one of these cars yet...but I am sure they are torque monsters.
I have had a great deal of experience with the current-gen CLS63...how does the M5 compare, in terms of power/acceleration?
