The HRE P40 and newer design P40sc (concave shape) are beautiful. The cost new is in excess of $6K. I understand why buying a set of preowned HREs can be a smart move.

Yeh, ADV 1's are really nice. I think the price of it is neck and neck with HRE's...

ADV has a lot of options/choices too, which is fun, but can get frustrating...
and yes, think they are on the same price range...maybe a bit more than HRE..

Please let us know if you have any questions. I can be reached directly at LonM@hrewheels.com

Many other wheel brands have options, but some of those options are standard on our wheels.

Don't forget that we do the full production of our wheels in-house in our 60,000 sq ft facility in San Diego, CA. The facility is TUV manufacturer certified. We do our brushed/polish, powder coat finishes in-house.

I believe that's an older style, M49.

I like that style 15 spoke. If more people like the 15 spoke, maybe we can bring it back

I absolutely LOVE the HRE wheels, but unfortunately at this time I have too much $$ tied up in 3 cars and quads... So I think I'm going to have to settle for the VRM V710s, at least I'll be moving up to 19s!!!
