I have looked and looked , no numbers on back of the wheels... i was told ET35 but not sure that is right..

They were on an 2002 S55 if that helps? Ill look again to see if i can find some numbers on the back...

I would trade for a late 80's cosworth project car...

If there HRE's then they will have a serial number on them somewhere so they can keep track of the wheels.

The serial number will be in the back-side of the hub (where the lugs go through). It should be about 12 digits and the front should be different from the rear!

HRE serial numbers tell model,size,offsets, and widths...and how old the wheels are!!! There should be two on each wheel (a short one and a longer one under it). Please post them both.

Here are the numbers

Both wheels have the number

f - 46945 on the top

the front number is r5h20p306520

rear - r5h20p397025 ( or 825 or 325 ) hard to read the third to last number..

The 46945 number lets you know that the wheels are about 3 yrs old.
The fronts are 20X8.5 (30mm offset)
The rears are 20X9.5 (39mm offset)

The 3rd to the last number is a zero (8 or 3 wouldn't make sense).
You probably measured them from the outer lip to the outer lip to get the width you came up with, but you should measure from the inside flange to the inside flange to get the correct width. If you call HRE and give them the numbers, they can tell you what specific car they were made for and when!!! Hope that helps.

Not to hate on HRE or these wheels, but HRE rims are VERY prone to bending. I've had two differnt sets of 19's and ended up dealing with multiple bent rim halves on both sets. HRE charges a small fortune to replace bent rim havles - the proper way to repair these. I would think used 20" HREs are a sure lock for being bent out of round. I finally gave up on HREs . . . they're pretty, but that's about the only nice thing I can say about them.
