I have crash tested HRE's and I can honestly say they are a damn strong wheel. Now for the track I have a set of CCW race wheels. For the street I have HRE's. I would never run the HRE's on the track. Nor would I expect them to fail me on the street.

HRE's sure are pretty! My buddy has a set (547's) with black centers on his Viper- It looks AMAZING. But I would pick up a set of Kinesis if money were not an issue.
