F-2 is a more aggressive fitment which may require suspension upgrades such as coilovers to lower vehicle to a specific height.

F-3 is the most aggressive fitment requiring suspension upgrades such as airbags/coilovers and adjustable suspension arms to allow the vehicle to aggressively sit over the wheel and tire.

No modifications required.

FENDER WHEEL ANGLE WHEEL TIRE OE Fitment

Designed to maintain or enhance OE ride and handling characteristics.

Generally, wheel will be flush with fender.

FENDER WHEEL ANGLE WHEEL TIRE Slight Tire Stretch

Tire fitment is very important and may require specific tire brands or camber adjustment to prevent fender contact. May require fender rolling or other minor body modifications.

FENDER WHEEL ANGLE WHEEL TIRE Heavy Tire Stretch

In most cases, this fitment also requires fender rolling or other fender modifications to allow the wheel and tire to sit within the wheel well without obstruction.

STATE OF THE ART DESIGN & ENGINEERING Our Wheels Perform As Well As They Look OEM automotive companies spend years designing, engineering, refining and testing the fastest and most desirable cars in the world. Before you make an investment in your prized vehicle, look to the company that puts this same level of craftsmanship and attention to detail into the production of its wheels. From professional automotive designers and engineers balancing form and function, to the latest in 3D CAD modeling and Finite Element Analysis (FEA), to German TÜV-approval, look to HRE for unmatched style, refinement, safety and performance. HRE’s 60,000 square foot manufacturing facility is TÜV approved; a prerequisite to sell wheels legally in Germany, Austria and some other European countries. All HRE wheels are engineered to meet or exceed German TÜV and Japanese JWL standards giving you piece of mind you can trust.



LIGHTWEIGHT DESIGN Why It’s Important And How We Achieve It At HRE, we understand the importance of engineering lightweight wheels. Achieving low unsprung mass and low rotational inertia is essential to maintaining and enhancing the performance of your vehicle. Anyone can make a lightweight wheel by simply pulling out mass. The real challenge is to create a wheel that is lightweight AND strong. Ensuring long fatigue life, high stiffness and robust impact resistance is key to the creation of wheels that perform while being extremely safe. At HRE we fully understand the science behind this balancing act and without this attention to detail it simply wouldn’t be an HRE. Examples Used by HRE to Create Lightweight Wheels: Spoke Side Cuts Using I-Beam spoke geometry we remove “inefficient” material while maximizing strength and stiffness under high lateral g-forces. Rim Register Pockets Removing small amounts of mass at the outer edges of our wheels has a huge effect on minimizing the rotational inertia, increasing acceleration and reducing stopping distances of the vehicle. Back Pad Pockets Reducing additional unsprung mass close to the rotational axis of the wheel center ensures the highest levels of road-holding and vehicle dynamics. FEA Computerized Finite Element Analysis allows us to analyze the strength and stiffness of wheels, making minute adjustments in order to maximize strength/weight ratios long before we cut a first prototype or send for structural testing. Ti Bolts Using high strength Titanium assembly bolts removes an additional half-pound out of an already lightweight wheel; further reducing unsprung mass and rotational inertia.

THE FINEST MATERIALS To Be The Best, You Have to Start With The Best We’ve searched the planet for the best components to build our wheels. We aren’t looking for the lowest cost, we’re looking for the highest quality… plain and simple. Not all forgings are created equal. We use the same US forging supplier as Ferrari and Boeing. With customers like that we’re confident we’ve picked the best forging partner in the world. •

Spun aluminum rim barrels are sourced in the USA from the best in the business; creating the truest and toughest barrels money can buy. •

Extra strong Italian lug bolts are standard on HRE wheels, preventing bolt stretch and potential wheel separation under the severest forms of driving. •

Custom-designed, lightweight Titanium assembly fasteners for our C90 and CL90 Competition Series are sourced from Germany to ensure unquestioned quality. •

We teamed up with acclaimed racing fastener manufacturer, Automotive Racing Products, to design and manufacture our high-strength stainless steel assembly bolts, standard on our 3-piece wheels. •

Industrial-strength powder coat is applied in-house at HRE to create a beautiful yet resilient finish able to stand up to the harshest conditions.

WE DO IT IN-HOUSE We Create It. We Build It. We Control It. We believe the best way to create a world-class product is to control as many aspects of its design, engineering, and production in-house as possible. HRE has invested heavily in our own 60,000 square foot facility near San Diego, California to do just that. From Design and Engineering, to CNC Programming and Machining, to Polishing and Powder Coat, to Shipping and Customer Service, every aspect of an HRE Wheel goes through our TÜV certified quality management system. This in-house control allows us to continually refine and improve our processes and products so that you can be confident you’re receiving the finest quality wheels available.
