We've taken a look back at our history and picked five styles to refresh with a modern twist; introducing the Classic Series. We found inspiration in iconic sports cars like the Ferrari 512TR, Porsche 964, BMW E36 M3, Acura NSX and even German wagons like the W124 Mercedes-Benz E-Class.
The new Classic line debut is available in diameters ranging from 18 to 22 inches and widths range from 7 to 14 inches.
Features include a modern conical profile with clean and simple spoke designs that highlight the style of wheels and cars before the domination of modern era of automation and electronics.
Your Vintage Series line was also forward-thinking, with a focus on the past.
Available in 18" fitments:

The creative team at HRE Performance Wheels understands that certain items share a timeless beauty that grows with age; for example the original Gibson Les Paul Custom, a 1988 Ferrari F40 and the Leica M5. While some designs merely grow older, others grow cooler. With that in mind, HRE is proud to offer a sneak peek of its Vintage Series – three designs from the brand's 34-year history, completely re-engineered with modern 3-piece forged wheel technology for today's sports and super cars.
"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," said HRE Wheels President Alan Peltier. "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."
All models in HRE's Vintage Series have been reengineered with modern FEA analysis for maximum strength, machined from aerospace-grade forged alloy and hand-finished to every customer's exact specifications. Models available include the 454 (classic Italian style five-window), the 501 (mesh lace) and the 505 (thick five spoke) in 18 through 20 inch diameters and widths ranging from 7 to 14 inches. Nearly unlimited finish options are available, from classic gold, bronze and polished centers and rims to hand-brushing and custom tinted colors.
