best place to buy HRE's...

**Diesel'S4** · 08-12-2004 02:08 PM

I may have been sucked in...

I'm just wondering if the prices listed on HRE's site are what people actually sell them for...

I'm assuming not, but who knows...

I can get a hell of a deal on some Champion Motorsport RF33's with the new Michelin PS2's... they'll be over $1000 off, and come to about $4500...

Can i get HRE's in that price range...? I'm interested in the 843R's...

**JoJo** · 08-12-2004 02:38 PM

contact dolphin s or projekt 8e over on the b6 a4 forums on audiworld (although dolphin s is on the b6 s4 forums also). They seem to have an in for pretty good prices on hre's from what I hear.

RDMWheels.com? never dealt with them so can't vouch for anything on them... but they do advertise em..

**bbaudi382** · 08-12-2004 03:38 PM

hmm...i would go with carrozzeria design...although i've never done business wth them, they're an AZ advertiser and have alot to lose if this first big transaction doesnt go through. so i think they'll be really helpful to make sure it works out for you!

**hyperspeed** · 08-12-2004 03:43 PM

id definitely go with CD.. just ask for andy he'll hook u up for sheezy

**CadenceX** · 08-12-2004 04:11 PM

Dolphin, projekt, myself as well as many others have all gotten their HREs through Carrozzeria Design. Talk to Andy.

**JoJo** · 08-12-2004 04:19 PM

I thought they got them from pete at wheelexperts.com ?

**Diesel'S4** · 08-12-2004 04:47 PM

thanks for all the feedback fellas...

we'll see what we can make happen...

what are the advantages to a 3 piece wheel over the Champion Motorsport 1 pc... i know the CM's are forged with an 8000 ton press... allowing for a very lightweight super strong wheel...

i'm unaware of HRE's mfg process though, and if a 3 pc is going to be stonger that a single piece wheel...

mind PMing me details on your experience...?

Hello Diesel'S4,

Please send me an email or give me a call at 949-861-8863 for HRE info!

sweettalker,

Please send me an email about your experience. I would like to help you out with your situation. At the same, I would like clarify that although Carrozzeria Design provides service to TWC vehicles, TWC and Carrozzeria Design are separate organizations.

Best regards,

Andy

Hello!

Very good choices on the wheels!

**Imperial** · 08-12-2004 06:15 PM

Well good grief, don't tease us like that! Let's hear what the new S4's shoes'll be

**F16HTON** · 08-12-2004 06:15 PM

Sorry to jack this thread, but Andy could you post any information about the upcoming Vorsteiner B6 body kit?

i haven't made my decision...

i'd like the HRE's but they are WAY more than the Champion MotorSport wheels...

although it's a 3 piece wheel, i can't see spending that much more money on the HRE's...

I still haven't made my final decision, as i have some other calls in for pricing...

**CadenceX** · 08-12-2004 07:03 PM

HRE HRE HRE!
S4 on HREs...=0

**Imperial** · 08-12-2004 07:24 PM

Hahaha, Brian the voice of reason

you know Diesel, HRE's are a hefty price, but then you can say "yeah, I've got HRE's on my S4"

true, but is that going to get me laid more...?

i doubt my wife even knows what HRE's are...

all she'd know is they were a $2000 set of wheels...

Hmmm, yeah, that'd be a problem. She might just see them as a really expensive set of wheels, as opposed to the hottness they are...

maybe you could use them as an aphrodisiac somehow

I'm pretty sure the 1 piece is going to be stronger then the 3 piece. The advantage of the 3 piece is obviously if you bend a lip or something, its an easier fix. If the HRE's are too much, you could always check out DTM Kreuz, Fikse, Angstrom, or Introforged. They all make forged wheels that are a bit cheaper then HRE.

**Diesel'S4** · 08-12-2004 09:46 PM

how long does it typically take to get your wheels once you place the order...?

Set 'em next to a cozy blanket, rose petals, some candles, soft music, a bottle of wine...

i did look at those other companies, but none of the designs stickes me at all...

and i do not like the rivets or hardware on the normal 3 pc wheel... that's why i like the 840 series from HRE...

HRE are the sh!t Albeit, overpriced. Check out Iforged, very similar to HRE. Not sure, but I heard they are made in the same place.

Iforged, Angstrom, DTM Kruez, and DPE all offer their wheels in 2 piece also. i.e. no rivets.

Wheels usually take around a month to get after ordering.

**CadenceX** · 08-12-2004 11:53 PM

HREs are beautiful pieces of art. I seriously dare anyone to visit the manufacturing facility of an "alternative" company and compare your visit to HRE. The quality of craftsmanship at HRE is unmatached by any...if you ever have the opportunity to visit HRE, please do...it'll satisfy every penny spent on your wheels. The wheel makers are very passionate car enthusiasts who take a lot of time detailing and perfecting your set of custom wheels.

If you are staying with retailers in PA, you might want to also give auto addictions a call. They deal in all that high end shit.

Auto Addictions has always been a rip off... i only ever used them as a place to do installs, and even then i thought they were kinda "okay"... it was just the closet place to get any aftermarket work done, that you didn't want your dealer to do...

AFAIK, it's not even AA anymore though... it was sold and it's now under a new name and management...

**CarrozzeriaDesign** · 08-13-2004 03:40 PM

Diesel'S4- Please don't hesitate to give us a call before you make your final purchase. As you can see from our website we are a dealer for Champion Racing wheels as well. We will be more than happy to work out a deal for you and earn your business. Thank you.

i thought Andy was going to give me a call with a quote on the Champion Motorsport RF33's, but he never did...

i've got my mind made up now anyhow that i want the HRE's, but your price was just too high...

if you think you can do any better give me a shout... but i don't want Yoko tires either... i want the Michelin PS2's...
