HRE R43 in anything other than black?
I have just ordered my snow tires, and am having them put on my stock wheels, but it got me thinking about what wheels to get next spring.
I am definitely a "function over form" type of guy, but that said, the HRE R43's look mean, but we all know they are business as well. I like the black gloss look that most people here are doing, but I am also considering something lighter and shinier, for the summer ya know. I have not been able to find any pictures of an E9X M3 with HRE R43s in any color other than black! HRE has *so* many finishes for them, so I would really like to see some pictures of the other colors mounted on our cars. Does anyone have any such pics? |

I believe you can get them in any standard finish and, if you pay extra, any custom finish. In an old issue of GRM, HRE had an add with a picture of the R40 in their brush tinted clear finish. Also, just check their website for available finishes.
I have a set of R40 in a textured matte black finish. |

I'd say go matte black, brushed aluminum/silver, or brushed gunmetal if you want to be more conservative. If you like to be crazy like me id get something like red, green or orange, depending on the color of the car

I'll have a set of HRE R40's in not black next week
So far most M3's have done black and while it looks good I needed something different.

Most of our customers prefer the Black finishes on the R40 Series. But we can definitely build the wheel with any of our available finishes.
Here's some of them in gloss white and satin gold finish for the R43 |
