Default HRE Wheels

As some of you know, I recently purchased a set of 22" x 9.5" HRE 647R's for my Navigator and am awaiting the return of my Vette so that I can buy a set of 19 x 9.5 (front) and 19 x 11 (rear) HRE 547R's for it.

I was up last night furiously daydreaming a bunch about how nice the rims will look on my Navigator once they get in (which should be in about 2-3 weeks) and how sweet they'll look on the Vette as well when I realized something!

I've always seen a lot of the Vettes on the CF with the different wheels made by HRE---547's, 541's, 540's, 542's, and 545's. However, I have never seen them on a car LIVE and IN PERSON!!! As a matter of fact, I've never seen them on a Navigator either. Sure, everyone's seen chrome 22 and 24 inch wheels on the Navigators in real life as well as on some of the other webpages out there. Wheels like Kaotik, Giovanna, Boyd, Boze, 310motoring, Raceline, and so on. But never HRE's! Why is that??? :confused:

If any of you come across a Navigator with HRE's on it please send me a pic or a link. Until then, I will post some pics on my website once I get the wheels on. :seeya

When you get your HRE wheels are you going to sell to OZs?
If so let me know

Before you set you mind on the 540s look at the new 840s series. Much much cleaner wheel without the exposed rivets. But some like the rivets just personal perference.

Either way, it will look sweet :cheers:
