New Vintage Series Supercar Wheels from HRE

From Automotive Discovery: New Vintage Series Supercar Wheels from HRE Classic car lovers are jumping for joy to see the gorgeous new models HRE has proudly introduced. This new Vintage Series from HRE Performance Wheels have all the modern updates any car lover expects, with all the coolness that only the true classics possess. HRE rolled out three versions to offer in their Vintage Series line. The 501 “Mesh Lace” version is inspired by the original Porsches released decades ago. The 505, billed as “Thick five spoke” is inspired directly from the Ferrari 288 GTO and F40, and the 454 “Five Window” hosts Lamborghini Countach posters.

Alan Peltier, HRE Performance Wheels President said, “The process of recreating vintage designs that captured the style and essence of the originals was very exciting and challenging for all of us at HRE. These designs take us all back to the ’70′s and ’80′s when we were kids falling in love with exotics for the first time and truly becoming car lovers. Capturing all the character and magic of these designs, while ensuring they fit modern super cars and met our current engineering standards, made the project tougher than simply creating replicas of the original cast wheels. We found inspiration in those original designs but created wheels that reflect the HRE of today; wheels that are truly inspired.”

HRE Performance Wheels reengineered all three models using FEA analysis, aerospace-grade forged alloy, for maximum strength. These classic cars are being hand finished to each customer’s precise specifications. There is a wide range of options available including hand brushing custom tinted colors, and classic bronze, gold and polished centers and rims. The 505 Thick Five Spoke is available in 18 to 20 inch diameters and 7 to 14 inches in width. All models receive HRE Performance Wheels that are specifically engineered to minimize rotational inertia and un-sprung mass to offer optima performance.
