| Supreme Power - NEW HRE/Dymag CF wheels |
-Just wanted to share this NEW carbon fiber HRE/Dymag wheel coming- They should be available for sale late April for Mid-May delivery. Pricing and distribution TBD, retail price will be around 10k  -from MotortrendUSA Lightweight aftermarket wheels are typically made from one of two materials -- aluminum and magnesium. Forged aluminum is a cost-efficient material to build wheels from while being easy to work with -- two reasons why it continues to be a top choice with tuners and racers around the world. Meanwhile, forged magnesium is even lighter than aluminum, but unfortunately it's higher cost and labor-intensive nature means it's usually reserved for ultra-exclusive race and road cars (Porsche's Carrera GT has magnesium wheels). So, where are wheel manufacturers turning to next to find the way forward in low-mass rolling stock? Two words: Carbon Fiber. HRE Performance Wheels Carbon Series Blazing a new trail in the wheel industry are arguably two of the most notable wheel makers in the world, American-bred HRE Performance Wheels and Dymag Racing U.K. The two have partnered to create a new ultra-light wheel lineup called the Carbon Series. Although full-carbon fiber wheels have been around for a while, none have been constructed using a mix of 6061-T6 forged aluminum centers that HRE has mastered and carbon fiber outer rims which Dymag has built a successful reputation on. The result, HRE Performance Wheels chairman Chris Lunhow says, is "one of the highest quality, lightest performance wheel series available for discriminating racers and car enthusiasts worldwide." Initially, the wheels will be available to select HRE global distributors in 19- and 20-in. diameters and can be customized per application. As of press, there was no indication of the wheels' weights.
