HRE 540...mmmmm <img src="graemlins/bigok.gif" border="0" alt="[thumbsup]" />

Seriously, I love all the basket type rims like the Fiske, Kinesis, and HRE. They are all some very sweet, well made rims. I currently have the Technology Hollow Spoke rims on my car. Because of their light weight and ease of cleaning, I have a hard time making the justification to upgrade. From what I understand the new 18" Carrera rims are just as light.

In addition to liking the look, I purchased the HRE 540s because they are lighter than the stock TT hollow spokes on my forthcoming 996TT. Kinesis and Fiske also make lighter rims. I liked the HRE 540 better than the similarly styled Kinesis K28, and the Fiske, although offering a good looking similar style, does not yet offer a reverse lip.

Wheel Enhancement carries all of these rims, and many others, and they are a very professional operation. John knows wheels. I highly recommend them.
