Great looking wheels and car. Now, I need one too..
I got a feeling at the meet(Smoky Mountian) and I asked you about your new wheels, but you kept it quiet...but in my mine was thinking about the HRE's. Great choice of wheels

I was pleasantly surprised when the ride is just a bit stiffer than the OEM 17s. Got to travel on the freeway last night a little, and its pretty close to glass.
Other short term thoughts:
- Road noise is up a tad, but only when braking
- Road feel is UP
- Performace (dead stop launches; slow rolling starts; freeway punches) feels nearly identical, which is kick azz

I wanted 'sporty' but with a little but of zip. I love the 5 spoke, but they style is everywhere. I really like the split-5 configuration (My old Lowernhart BR5s, OEM 17s, Dave's PIAAs).DaveGS4 mentioned that they reminded him of the SSR GT3s, which I can kind of see as well, but I never thought of them while shopping.
Another item worth mentioning, my supplier, Euro Concepts. Raja was solid the entire process, and provided me with every detail I requested - even down to the lugnuit size so I can shop for wheels locks.
Raja was the epitome of professional service and support. 703.736.9498 // aolim: DGTLM3

looking very good dex, they look so sweet on your car
yes, euroautoconcepts is the bomb. raja is a very nice car and he's very helpful. in fact, i am getting wheels from him as well, he's going to be the sponsor of my cars you just can't ask anything more than that
and since i am on CL, if you guys have any questions about hre wheels, like sizes, prices, any details, etc... you guys can just pm me and i can give you all the info you want. right now i am trying to help raja to lessen his load on the lexus side.
so yeah, fire away all the questions you have
