Re: Thinking about HRE's for the Z06..... (Rafael Palmeiro)
Hello again Rafael........I think the best looking wheel is the HRE 545 or the 547. http://www.matt@exit28motorsports.com can hook you up. In my opinion go for the 18" front with 265/35/18 and 19" rear with either 295/30/19 or 295/35/19 in the high polished finish...........Now were talking :yesnod: :cheers:

Good choice. I prefer my 18's and 19's as well, mostly because I can get a fatter tire on a 19" as oppossed to a 20", and I love my meats in back. I also like my 545's, but given the choice between 540's and 547's, the 547's get my vote hands down.
I have to admit though, is SW the king of lowering or what?
Check out some more forum members, Nasty C5, JetSkiFast, IndyPace78 and a whole bunch others run the HRE's as well.

Yep, I hate you too.......Seriously, your set-up is the reason why I am going with the 545's and also the reason that I stated my previous post in this thread. I love the 18/19 set up but since my Christmas bonus was 100% less than I thought, I have to wait :crazy: :cheers: :cheers:

Re: Thinking about HRE's for the Z06.....
Depends on the car color. 547's or 545's.
545's for Mill Yellow with a mixed Satin/HiPol finish.
Black? Def HiPol 547's.
I prefer 18"x4 for height and tire choices & performance, 19" if looks over performance is the goal.

547's rule. I'm thinking about new wheels and they are at top of my list (except price is too high for me, :cry doh).
Anyone want to sell me some used 547? ;)

Rafi,
We have a mutual friend, Greg Williams? Seen him lately?
Give us a call or an email about HRE pricing. We can make a great deal ona set. My choice would be the 540's, though the 547 has been the popular choice.

547's RULE and also allow for big brake clearance if you decide to upgrade later.I have Brembo 6 piston calipers with 14" rotors AMAZING!!!.Call us at XTREME MOTOR SPORTS for the lowest price on any HRE wheel,we sell lots of them and were a factory authorized dealer which means you pay no middle man mark up.
So call XTREME 480-517-4969 for your best price.Good Luck.David S.
