Custom HRE 545 WHEELS w/ POTENZA SO3's (used less than 2000 miles): They are in excellent condition. Check out the link with the pics below!!!!! If you know high quality wheels, you know that HRE is the top of the line and the most expensive wheel out there. They are the highest quality wheels and in perfect condition. They are a true 3 peice wheel. The front wheels have an offset of 55 and the rears have an offset of 73. Its a perfect fit!!! Check out the link to the pics below and you will see. They have a polished chrome lip with a custom gunmetal pearl shade. Front tires are 225/35-18(18x8) Rear Tires are 285/35-18(18x10) Front tires still have about 85% tread left and the rears have about 75% left.






The moral of this story is beware of the dishonest people out there especially "shogun"

The tires are shot! Not street legal nearly bald.

The bend in the wheel is not from shipping. Take a very large load to inflict this damage. The curb rash is not from shipping ether.

Even wrapped wrong, that looks like curb rash and some rock ships to me.
