Default HRE Wheels | Introducing the R101 LIGHTWEIGHT - Our Newest and Lightest Wheels



We're extremely excited to introduce you to HRE's R101 Lightweight! HRE’s R101 Lightweight takes the R101 style to the next level. The R101 LW is specifically designed for individual vehicle models creating the ultimate in lightweight optimization for street and track use. Every vehicle model has a different load rating and power output, so we’ve utilized this data to redesign the R101 for each model application fine-tuning each detail of the wheel to remove weight and add stiffness where possible.

BMW M2 - F: 16.6 lbs | R: 17.2 lbs (19x9.5 / 19x10.5)

BMW M3/M4 - F: 16.7 lbs | R: 17.6 (19x9.5 / 19x11)

Audi R8 - F: 17.8 lbs | R: 22.2 lbs (20x8.5 / 21x12.5)

Chevrolet Corvette C7 Z06 - F: 18.0 lbs | R: 19.4 lbs (19x10.5 / 19x12)

Very nice! Especially in the dark brushed finish. Would be great to see under a RS.

Photoshoot has been done I believe, just waiting on the rendered images to get finished up. Subscribe as it'll likely be the next post I make

Im in for these RS pics... would you guys ever customize the brushed dark clear finish to be a little darker for, say, a Lava Orange RS?

For purposes of color matching in the future if we need to, we generally don't like doing so. I'm sure the guys can do it for you but to a certain degree if you add too much 'smoke' in the clear coat, it'll hide the beautiful brush lines you get with a Brushed Clear or standard Brushed Dark Clear. Darker and you wont see those brush lines and it'll appear more like a gunmetal/grey color.

Yeah, that's what I would be going for since I have the platinum color now and do like those. You know I had black on the RS7 so maybe just time for a change. Not sure if I'm attracted to the brush strokes as much as I am that clear sheen coat that makes them glisten.
I would worry about curbing one and having to send it back to you guys to match. So there wouldn't be some sort of numerical formula to match if that were to ever happen in the future? I would assume not and you seemed to say that, but I wasn't sure what process you guys use.
Thanks Jurrian, as always (I just follow you around forum to forum! LOL)!

No problem! Once it's time to pull the trigger on wheels again, hit me up!

Thanks to our dealer Scuderia Auto Art in Sydney Australia, another R101LW wheel set has gone out to a Porsche 997 GT3! 20x9 fronts weigh 16.2lbs (7.34kg), and the rear 20x12 weighs 19.5lbs (8.84kg).









Thanks for taking a look!

Any chance that these might be made in a satin black sometime in the future? Also wondering how these will be comparing price-wise to the BBS F1-Rs. I assume weights for regular 991 GT3 not available yet.

You can customize the wheels to any color you'd like. We've got a long list of standard powdercoat finishes including Satin Black, as well as many other finishes too.

Can't post the price on this thread due to forum rules, but I'm more than happy to give you MSRP if you send me a quick PM

If anyone has questions about pricing or needs some renders made, don't hesitate to ask!!!

I personally love these wheels. We have a set in Satin Bronze sitting here in my office ready to go on our 2017 R8 V10 Plus!
