When I saw these HREs in the classifieds, I just "needed" them for my 996. Wife digs them too. Fister mufflers and a full body kit coming this year.

HRE 547's are very cool. I have a 19" set done in black that I'll be hopefully selling come early summer. Just couldn't do the black on black look so they gotta go. Great looking wheels though!

Great choice for your car. I love the bright lip.

Have a set of Sport Design's that I'm going to have the centers powdercoated and trying to decide what to do with the lips...clear or wax/seal (and maintain).

Hey Sub,
Sorry I didn't see your question earlier. The lips were clear-coated at same time wheels were painted. Hoping that holds up. I'm pretty good at not curbing my wheels, but potholes are another matter. As for color, yes, it's Seal Grey. I think the darker grey looks good with gold wheels.

Is this a wrap or paint? I am normally not a fan of matte paint on my cars (I like shiny stuff), but this looks good!

Good question, hard to tell from the photos, but I agree it's a good looking color. Don't have much info on the car though, just the photos. Anyone here know the owner who can verify that?

OEM 996.2 18 inch 5 spokes every time. Sharp, clean look and a breeze to clean, especially with Waxaddict wheel wax on.
