There is a lot more to fitting HREs than meets the eye. I hope you understand my position. If you would like for me to elaborate, please contact me in private.

HRE fitments
hey Lee, i actually just ordered a set of HRE 547's, but my dealer told me(and he even called HRE that you cant go any bigger than 265. If you can actually go 275, do you think you could help me out. I am spendinga lot of money on these wheels, and I want to make this a one time deal, as I will probably upgrade my car in the future. I think right now i have 19x9.5's in the back with 265 toyo t1s's ordered but I just made it last friday. If you could help me in any way with the fitments i would really appreciate it, I tried calling your store bvut it says you are closed(Dec 23).
Thanks,
Asa

I didnt even realize that this conversation was going on in this thread, I wish i had. I'm also in Miami so im hoping he doesnt think that im trying to rip off his fitments. Its just that my dealer in Miami said that nothing larger than 265 will work without rub(unless mods are done to the car)

The store is called California Custon(but its in Miami, I swear!!). The reason I went with 9.5's is because the guy told me 275's wouldnt fit, thats why i wanna try and change my order since HRE rims take about 5 weeks to make anyway.

a 19x10 with a 275 will fit, but you have to be careful. Like I told you via email, unfortunately, I cannot disclose our fitments for use by other dealers.
Anyhow, I still believe you will be happy with what you ordered. A 265 looks perfect on there IMO (I have 265s on the rear of our CLK here).
