Thanks! Yes it is a blast to drive. The car is already dropped - I have the L-tuned suspension on the car, but it needs further dropping in the front which will be accomplished when I switch out the suspension to the Flex coilovers in spring! It is just looking higher because it is still lifted on the hoist!

You mean it looks off the hook?!

Congrats Hameed, glad you like 'em! I agree, they look better on silver than they did on blue. I hope they arrived up there in the shape they left... they were in like new / in perfect condition when I last saw them in Dex's apt.

Post more pics (off of the lift!).
. Thanks Dave. Yes as far as I am concerned they are in brand new condition. After all Dex had this set of rims/tires on his car for about 1K miles only!

Hameed,

Congrats buddy on the new shoes.. I also agree they look nicer on your silver GS than on Dex's former Blue GS.. Can't wait to see them in person.. In March drop by my office and show me all the new toys.. The Tein's will blow you away when you get them installed..

its all good hameed, i personally know u a little through pm's ,the phone call, and through the board.i know what u meant but u know some members might take it as a minor slap when u come on so strong its all good ... the wheels looks vey hot and when u slam the car a little more they will look bigger and more aggressive, plus like u said pics never really do justice...congrats again

Thanks Henry!! I've been dying to join the HRE club ever since I discovered HRE Wheels! I am glad I waited for just the right opportunity! I still can't get over how aggresive they look - the pics don't really convey that impression. HRE's are the real deal!!
here's a hint. if you wanna show how aggressive the setup is, take pic of your car from either the front of the black, right next to the headlight or tallights. it's so aginst the fender. in my case, basically if you put a stick against the fender, it will touch the rims at two point top and bottom. talk about flush

Hameed, I think you need to update your avitar with a pick of your HRE wheels.
