Default HRE Wheels Open House 2012

This past weekend I got the great opportunity, a long with a few hundred other automotive enthusiast, to visit the home of HRE Performance Wheels. Every year HRE is gracious enough to open its door to the public and let everyone see how their products are produced. They are one of the few wheel manufacturers here in the USA. They've taken great stride to improve their products and they take great pride in showing everyone how. If you've never gone I strongly recommend it next time they hold an open house.

There were lots of cool cars present at the HRE Open House from the stock to the wild. Cool stuff like an turbo LSX powered Nissan 200SX, a slammed to the ground BMW CS Coupe, and even a Lamboghini Miura. There was something for everyone present. There was even the sacrilegious to some Aston Martin Vantage Convertible with a Supercharged LS3. Domestics, Imports, Euro's they were all wearing HRE's. HRE isn't a wheel brand that caters to just one category of the automotive world. They cater to all and will build you what you want.

As part of the event they had vendors showing off their goods, food trucks, and even a raffle. The raffle was to win a set of ANY HRE wheel you would want. Yours truly bought two tickets, but unfortunately I was six off the winning number. I was looking forward to putting $6k wheels on a $1k car. Oh well, maybe next year.

This was a fun filled day and I put a ton of work into getting these shots. I hope you all enjoy and find something you like:

Love that BMW CS coupe. They had a nice feature on it at StanceWorks.

Great pics! A lot of tastefully modded cars.
