Thinking of purchasing new rims HRE or Lsportline
Just wanna know what everyone thinks. I'm planning on getting the HRE 547r or the Lsportline evo 1. Which ones cost more? Which ones do you guys like more. i'm getting 19x8.5 in the front and 19x10 in the rear. Thanks for the opinion.

As for which cost more, I suggest you contact our 3 wheel vendors and get qoutes...but I can tell one thing, both are fairly expensive.
As for which "we" like best, I sure you will get varying opinions, but I have yet to hear anyone on this board say anything negative about any of the HREs...from what I understand, they are among the best.
I personally choose the MI evos, because they were exclusivly built for Lexus and the are also very high quality wheels.
I suggest you do the following:
1) Move this thread to the Wheels Forum.
2) Get price qoutes from the CL wheel vendors (info on the wheel forum)
3) Decide which one "you" like best (IMO you can't go wrong w/either)

You really don't want it all hot boyz style so I think you have no choice but to pick the gold plated finish.
Wheels- What kind of new toy? do you really need another set of 540's? hum. yeah you do.

wow, you're choosing from the best and admire/envy that. if i could ever afford HRE's, 547's would be the only one. not a fan of their designs. i'd personally chose the l-sportlines because you are getting good quality and something only other lexus' can have, as GunnerMac said. starting to be really fond of the Model 4 3-pcs.
i say pick either and never look back. how could you regret anything?

Yeah, the 547 isn't my favorite design on Lexus cars (but it looks good on a Ferrari)...I would get the 545 (if you want a 5-spoke). Both wheels are good, most likely, the HRE's will cost more...

Can't go too wrong with either.
And Manaray, I also like the 547 on a Ferrari... Here's a current customer's car.
Currently trying to get him into a set of Fikse's for an upcoming Forza magazine test. I'm more interested in where the girls came from... back right in particular

ah guys, i gotta go with the far left. you all know why. and no, they aren't good enough for that car.
my fiancee and i went to a track day hosted by an owner of a giant car chain, and he's a big car fan. raced the the mille miglia and one the first ferrari leaderships or something. anyhoo, fiancee got to sit in the f40 and me in an f50, both that guy's. imagine all the pictures i took for proof. 50 F50's in the US and two of them here in little Oregon, 15 miles apart. never in oregon is a being a car enthusiast good except for this.
wait, i was wrong. don't like the 547s at all. i was thinking 543 or 540. polished. i've seen some really nasty 547 knock-offs, and there's a 647 for SUVs
