What is the take of this comunity regarding HRE's on a civic?
1 Too Exspinsive?
2 Just do it?

 

HRE?

 

HRE = really expensive forged wheel. I say do it , if ya got the cash layin around and can afford a set. why not. be carefull for pot holes.

 

Had hre's on my old 525i! they looked sick but they also made me worry! potholes, expensive rollers and california dont go together....

Are you sure they will fit! you might want to call them up there in orange county ca, they make them how you want but they are not cheap at all! if i remeber mine were 3700 without tires....

WOW! I have a handful of friends that bought thier whole CIVICS, for 3700 dollars! They may be a bit of overkill for a Civic, but hey...to each his own. And if you have the cash to do it....more power to you!

 

I just looked them up and damn, every dingle one of those wheels looks completely sick. Looks like the smallest size they make is 17" though.. I vote overkill being that even if your car is totally bad ***, there is gonna be a 99% chance the car isnt worth $10,000. Still, you would be a baller lol

 

Every time I look @ your sig..I laugh my *** off. I'd like to thank you for that.

 

Damn though..some of those HRE's are bad *** looking. For anyone thats never seen them...I'll post a few pics...They're apparently ALL Forged, 3-piece wheels...









And this one takes the cake for me....LOOK AT THIS ****** BIMMER Z8!!!!!!!!

haha thanks man, I'm glad I'm not the only one that likes it It took me about a year to find a quote worthy of putting down there, and then that thread came up

I agree, with what was stated on the website, ALL of thier uber *** rims are 3 piece forged. Pretty baller yo. And really really expensive!

 

I love those z8's my neighbors got one, the sound of that car makes me cream every time he drives it.

Damn, I've never had the chance to see one in person. I'll bet it sounds beautiful! Ahhh...one of these days I'll be lucky enough.

And after I just said that I never got to see one in person...Ironically enough that picture I posted of the Z8 has New Jersey plates! hahaha. I wonder where he's from.

 

NO dont do it, HRE's are high end wheels for high end cars, i love my civic but its not a high end car, lets keep it real guys. i draw the line at work and rays. if your going to get HRE's might aswell consider some AMG or ac schnizer wheels too.

And for the 30th time tonight, I must again...agree with Blinx!


But I would honestly doubt they even made those wheels in 4x100 and in the correct offset to fit most Hondas. I don't know for sure though.

seriously huh? we posted on like the last 10 threads, im not sure either but i think there like rays/work/i-forged in the sense that they will make most of there wheels in any offset and any bolt pattern for an extra cost.

They are made specifically to your car with the dimensions you want!

Either way its overkill but just by a little bit!

 

well the nice thing about hre's if you do screw them up you can send the wheel back and they replace the centers.... they do also come in different colors as well as fully polished with a clear coat... nice wheels but they have raised there prices. there are not that cheap.. If fikse would make me a 17 forged wheel i would buy it from them.. cheaper and same quality.....

 

HRE's On a civic.... Come one man.

That's like having a trailer on beachfront property in Orange county.

EDIT: A Trashy Trailer

just think of it this way. "civics are easy to steal and will probably get stolen with those rims on it". unless you have an ultra high security system. so in my opinion. no way you should get it.
