HREs FOR CHEAP???
Hello everyone, i was in the C6 forum part...and talking to a forum member and he said he could get custom made rims for me if i could get 10 people to agree to the same wheel style...
I was thinking about a 19/20 wheel setup with the 547 HRE wheels with a deep dish style wheel for the rears (big lip) for that really wide look...going for 305s for the rear if anyone is interested please leave a name and then once we get 10 of agreed on the same wheel...we can let him know and get a price...
Hope this works,
Thanks to everyone

Its hard enough to get 10 people line up for a $200 item. I have to think that the chances of getting 10 people to sign up for a $6000 set of wheels is going to be next to impossible.
Good luck though...I love my HRE's.

After the huge iForge fiasco here I wouldn't touch an offer to custom make wheels under a group purchase with a 10-foot pole
Appreciate the offer though...it's the thought that counts.

Good luck!
I rarely see "HRE" and "cheap" in the same sentence. They are awesome looking car jewelry.
