New HRE 547 Wheels
Here are my new wheels. HRE 547's, brushed centers, polished lips. The 19's really improve the handling. Tires are Goodyear Eagle F1 GS-D3's. Nice tires, good grip in wet or dry. WAY better than the Conti's.





Thanks Peter at Wheel Experts. I did drive and remove the rust on the rotors after washing.

Looking good man!! Those wheels really set the car off. Look like Dr. Chill's long lost twin V. Nice, congrats, watch out for those damn potholes!!

Thanks guys. I plan to have them fix the brakes first and then try to do the ECU lowering as discussed in other posts.

Looking good!!! Are those 547 or 547R's? Also, what are your tire sizes?

I suspect the low stance is the resting position of the airmatic suspension. The car "wakes up" and raises to its normal position when you open a door.

First I followed you to the track, then I copied your wheels, 547R's just like you.

Those wheels look great. I'm putting an extremely similar one piece forged 20X10 wheel from CCW on my FX45...
