Default HRE Wheels

Hey I really, really love HRE 847R wheels, I was wondering if anyone had some info on these wheels like what widths they come in and how much they are ? I don't want to spend like 4k on rims alone, and I would like them in 19 inch, BTW does anyonek now what the max width you can run in the rear is ? Thanks.

dude, what car do you have? that determines what's the widest you can get

go to hrewheels.com, i think 540R series come from 7 to 13 inches in width

prices? if you only plan on spending 4 grands on rims, you have a tight budget for hre. a set of 19 i'd say about 4500? just a guess

19" 857R's list for $6800 or so...and that's for just the standard painted center with no clearcoat....$4500? Hmmm...more like in the upper $5000, lower $6000 range...

$4500 will get you into some 540R's or 540's (normal lip)....

As an option, you might want to look into iForged wheels. You can get their 2-piece series (which doesn't have bolts so you'll have the clean look)...they don't have any split spokes like the 847 but they have several other styles you might be interested in. They also have excellent pricing....

Thanks for the help, 6800 is just insane, but I still hope to get them one day, I'll check out IForged, thanks

that is insane. filthy rich or not, i'd never be able to pull myself together to get wheels at those prices. $1500/per is a number i MIGHT think about, but i'd be happy if all my wheels stay at $1000/per and never more. heck, $4k still sounds too much sometimes for wheels
