    HRE P40 Wheels

    I think I have found the wheels I would like on my 2007 Carrera S. In my opinion, the HRE P40's look awesome.
    Would Brushed or Silver look better on an Artic Silver Metallic Car?

    http://www.hrewheels.com/monoblok/porsche/p40/

    Anyone know where to get the best price?

    Re: HRE P40 Wheels

    I have brushed P40's on my white TT. I think the brushed would look best on a silver car; painted finish on darker cars.

    Try SupremePower in Placentia California and tell Eric I suggested you talk to him.

    Do you have a picture of your TT with the Brushed P40's?

    Thanks for the contact. - Rich

    Mine is arctic silver and I think the silver wheels (non-brushed) look perfect - see pic in my sig.

    Absolutely love the rims and the car ... Awesome look. I am usually not a fan of many after market rims - but those P40's are perfect for that car. - Thanks for the pics

    Re: HRE P40 Wheels

    Thanks Alex - now I see your sig pic. It was staring at me the whole time.

    The P40's arguably offer the best look over anything I've seen.

    Your TT looks great! Appreciate the post.

    Yes, especially for the TT
    Check the Simply Red thread for high quality pics of a guards red TT with P40's.
    Link to thread
    You can find more pics of P40's following the link I posted there.

    To OP: Got mine at Wheels Enhancement, but you might want check out Wheels Expert also (and the one Dick recommends above). Wheels Enhancement will take your wheels as trade in, but I am afraid it won't be much.

    Re: HRE P40 Wheels

    My understanding is that this wheel (HRE P40) is only available for wide bodies. Does anyone know if this has changed or will change in future?

    They look awesome. Nothing on their web site says anything about being for widebodies only. In fact they advertise for 911, Cayman, and Boxster.

    Trying to post this again as my first reply was deleted (not by me!!)

    I believe the pics above are 19's - same as Cannga's red Turbo and my Arctic Silver Turbo...

    Mine are 19's - 20's were too bling for my taste, and I wanted a chance to burn up the stock Bridgestones and get a set of PS2s.
