Lightbulb HRE 940RL Official Pictures & Introduction

The highly expected HRE 940RL is finally out and here are the official images.

FULL GALLERIES & PRICING INFO (ask 4 better price)

In-House Wheel / Tire Packages Available (see how we do it)
There are several reasons to buy from us. Firstly, we personally pick up HRE Forged wheels from their manufacturing facility in Southern California (they are 30 miles away from us). Secondly, we provide you with the most competitive pricing. Lastly, our mounting and balancing equipment and procedures insure that your wheels will not have exposed wheel weights or any type of damage.

- Diameter Range: 20" - 22"
- Sports Cars, GTs, Sports Sedans, Luxury Sedans

As of right now, the production time is 3-4 weeks for the 20" sizes and 2-3 weeks on the sizes 21" - 22".

Lose the rivets around the rim. I like them other than that. What a pain to keep clean.

Wow, that's a fine example of how rivets totally ruin an otherwise absolutely beautiful rim.

lol, this is not the first time I am hearing this about these new concave designs. I have already addressed this with HRE. Hoping they will offer the blind bolts option. That being said, a lot of people love those rivets especially on larger wheels.

I am sure many do like the look of rivets. Why would they make them if no one like them. For me, they take a beautiful wheel and make it a maintenance nightmare. They are a real PITA to keep clean. Does HRE have non-riveted styles?

Let me talk to HRE about this again. I am sure this can be done; however, they would have to put some more engineering into having the blind bolt option.

Wow...those wheels are a work of art. Does the wheel face have a clearcoat on them? It looks like it does.

Oh, btw...I love rivets...all my aftermarket wheels have rivets....and not that hard to clean.

Any brushed wheel has to have clear coat on them. HRE uses clear powdercoat to seal the finish instead of paint. This way the finish is a lot more durable.
