Peter or Bob- Does HRE make a diamond cut finish similar to the finish on the Auto Couture Magnifique? If so, any pics? Thanks!

yeah, they call theirs "brushed aluminum"...it's similar, but not exactly the same...this one comes out a tad bit darker when out of the sunlight

this 546R came out perfect on titanium silver, and looks great with the tanin red interior...this car got a F&R brembo brake upgrade with red calipers after this pic was taken...specs are 19x9 F and 19x10 R

Damn, that Ferrari is tight! I actually think the silver finish looks better on silver cars...it looks brighter(at least in pictures). I'll need to take a look at the brushed aluminum in person.

We will be showing the 441R in charcoal and 448R in brushed/clearcoat on a new E500 in our SEMA booth (we show different styles on either side of the cars). The E500 is lowered & has a Fab Design kit- it's that rare blue metallic, should be stunning! See you in a week!

Damn good call on the show cars. Ive said it many times, the 448R is my UNDISPUTED favorite HRE wheel....

DAMN I LOVE THE 441R!!! Bob, you guys kill me!!! 20" 441R!! PLEASE! Hehehe...actually, I want to see what you guys have at SEMA...before I start the letter writing campaign...

Hey, if I really like what I see at SEMA (as you say I will), can I just bring my Snap-On Wheel Lock Removers and take 'em with me...

Those are some damn nice looking cars there...wouldn't mind owning all of them...of course, I'd keep my Lexos!

Peter, you need to start you own gallery!!

That's a great gallery! Lots of hooked up cars in there. Kinda interesting how the euro car drivers don't seem to have the stigma about putting JDM wheels on their rides like we seem to have putting euro tuner wheels on a Lex
