um you can get that even from a Konig wheel...


[QUOTE=transportchef]they ride just as well as the stockers. No vibration and appears no noise when going over rough terrain./QUOTE]

 

I own a set of 19" 441Rs. (click GOT MODS in my link for cardomain page)

I've had them for almost 6 months now. I've hit a multitude of potholes and bumps with these wheels. One hit was hard enuff to snap off the TPS from one of the wheels. I live in SoCal where after the last season of rain, thousands of potholes showed up. I live in Los Angeles, where streets are just torn up.

These rims are strong. I can definitely vouch for them. My car/wheel enthusiast friends will vouch for that as well. Other friends have had their rims bend while mine have not. They're great wheels.

Now, would i take these wheels to the track? Hell no. Not because i question the strength, but because i don't want to damage them somehow. I spent a lot of money on these wheels. But i have to admit, i bought these for show. Not for go. I'd pick up a set of beater track rims like ENKEI's for the track.

Like LUCIDAZN posted, things are bound to happen. Wheels are not indestructible. They're also man-made. It could have been a bad batch of wheels, it could have been anything... what i do know is HRE goes WAAAAAY back. They've been around for a long time. I trust them.

Nuff said.

 

watch HRE is going to come in with a statement to cover all this up, or maybe they might clean up their business

 

HRE never looked high quality for me

they were just expensive....

 

How can you distinquish high quality from looking?

 

This makes me feel really great about the set of 540R's sittin in my garage.... Woulda been nice before I dropped 6k on rims. Oh well, They aint goin on till I drive my car out to Arizona (new house) anyway so I guess Ill have to sell em.
