    Do tell...

    As far as offset, the dust hasn't settled over at HRE concerning this set up. The variables have made it quite difficult. BBKs and widened front fenders have further complicated the process, but I know they'll come through with a sick fitment. They always do.

    I heard it is a custom design, where the wheel is sawed in half. So the bottom is flat and it has little tiny wheels along the bottom surface like roller blades.

    This way he can have a ride height of 0.05 inches without any rubbing under any situation.

    Alrighty friends, the HRE Vintage 505s have now officially been ordered. Theyll take about a week to build and my final decision is what color to do. Can some of you chime in here:

    :OPTIONS:

    1. Gloss black lip & matte black face

    2. Matte black lip & matte black face

    3. Matte black lip & textured black face

    4. Textured black lip & textured black face.

    Itll be one of these 4 options I believe. What do you all thinks?

    No option for gloss black lip with a textured face? I think the contrast between the two would help it pop a bit more. If not, my vote goes for number 1.

    cloors you may be onto something there. Good call.

    Dutch blackchrome would be sick but thats not one of their standard finishes. So it would add another week and $400- extra papes from what I understand. That is a great idea though. Maybe i should look one up for sample sake.

    Looking forward to seeing your wheels. I think there needs to be at lease one area or surface of the wheels with a gloss finish. Otherwise they tend to look dirty from a distance.

    Totally agree. The idea of gloss black barrels and textured centers is the winner. The VMRs on my TTS were also textured and it adds some nice depth to a wheels design. Helps you to appreciate the lines, much like a matte car wrap. You see it all, in a good way.

    Dude, get outta here with that crap! I will be getting my fill of Ed Hardy according to our man Dutch. I told him that the car is headed out East to Waterfest18 and Dutch gave me several warning signs to look out for at that show, such as: Ed Hardy shirts, Armani Exchange wrap around shades, shirtlessness, muscular mantits and hair-gel oil slicks! Hyped to soak that all in.
