HRE Wheels | Our New FlowForm Release is Here! Introducing the FlowForm FF04!



HRE Expands FlowForm Line With New FF04 Model

HRE adds new ten-spoke design aimed at the sports car segment to the FlowForm wheel series.





San Diego, Calif. (March, 2017) – HRE Performance Wheels is known the world over as a purveyor of beautiful and exclusive forged wheels. When it introduced the FlowForm line in 2012, HRE wanted to create a line of wheels infused with the passion and attention to detail seen it its most exclusive wheels, but at a price that was attainable for all HRE enthusiasts. Since that time, the FlowForm brand has proven itself to be the perfect entry-level product for those striving to own a set of HRE wheels. The new FF04 design marks the latest and most refined addition to the FlowForm brand and enables customers to experience HRE levels of style and performance.

The FlowForm wheel line is created using a high-tech flow-forming process which dramatically reduces the weight of the wheel without sacrificing durability and strength. The new FF04 wheels are engineered and tested to the same standards of HRE’s forged products and will carry TUV certification for sale in Europe and JWL/VIA certification for sale in Japan.

The FF04 wheel features a beautiful V-spoke design and will initially be offered in popular fitments for the BMW M3/M4, Chevrolet Camaro and Cadillac ATS-V with many more to follow in the coming months. Available in an all-new exciting standard finish called Liquid Metal, and including three new optional finishes; Eureka (Satin Metallic Gold), Vapor (Satin Metallic Silver), and Palladium (Gloss Metallic Silver).

“The success of our FlowForm brand has been amazing,” said Alan Peltier, president of HRE Performance Wheels. “As we look to further that success, the FF04 is a perfect example of how you don’t always have to sacrifice quality and style to meet an affordable price target. It just takes hard work, tremendous skill and a never-ending passion to be the best. I think this design will be our most successful FlowForm style yet, reaching enthusiasts that have long considered, but never felt they could afford an HRE wheel.”

About HRE Performance Wheels:
HRE designs, engineers and manufactures 3-piece and 1-piece forged aluminum alloy wheels for Racing, Performance & Luxury cars and SUVs in their San Diego, California-based, TÜV-approved facility. HRE’s built-to-order wheel sets offer a customized choice of offsets, widths and finishes, resulting in a uniquely personal style and performance solution for each customer’s application.

These are truly astonishing. I'm looking forward to helping many here on the forums acquire these bad boys.

Same pricing as the other FlowForm wheels if you're familiar with that pricing. We won't post it here since it violates forum rules but I'll send you a PM

Any possibility to have a render of Tarmac FF04 on an AW M2. I think it would look sick!

Thanks

Edit: In 19" too please

While you're at it, can you do the same with anthracite and sarsaparilla?

Renderings are going to take a while. Marketing team is all hands on deck with the release of the FF04 so renderings may take a few weeks.

HRE_Wheels Love the new style, curious about the fit. The Akra car pokes too much in the front for my tastes, especially since the wheel sticks out from the tire. Was this a development size?

That said, looks like the specs are updated on your site. Any pics on an M2 with the 20x9 ET25 ? I'm not very good with wheel measurements (offset) but looks like they are .5" narrower in the front, which should help, right?

Also, will the BMW roundel logo (centercap) still fit?

Fitment on the M2 is 20x9.5 ET20 with a 245/30/20 tire. We're not always going to please 100% of M2 owners, but we feel the fitment is exactly what the majority of M2 owners are looking for.

Don't have any photos of the alternative sizes because they're not in stock yet, but once they are I'll try to get some photos up for you

295/30/20, but some 305's will work. We tested the first set of 305's on Nitto Invos (which many of you know run more narrow than most other brands), and that worked perfectly fine, no rubbing anywhere, but if we used a 305 Michelin Pilot Super Sport, there's a higher likelihood of rubbing. So for those looking to run tires which run wide, Michelin is the most common example, then we would recommend a 295/30/20 over the 305.

The offsets on the 19" wheels look perfect. I'm also interested in the weights.

I'm trying to buy the new style and need help with fitment for 20s.

-f30 355i xdrive
-Brembo BBK front/rear
-dinan Springs (20mm)


I was an early adopter of the HRE-FF01, and had to use E90 m3 offsets...
20x8.5 +30mm
20x10 +40mm


I had to shave the rear wheels and run 265/30/20 which look too stretched for my tastes(275/30/20 rubbed). I want to avoid that situation again.




Is this the recommended sizing now that several offsets/widths are manufactured?
maybe..
20x8.5 +30
20x9.5 +42

I don't want the stretched look or have my rear wheels shooting out the side.

I can confirm that our FF04 fitment for the F30 will be 20x8.5 ET30 fronts with 235/35/20 tires and the rear set up will be 20x9.5 ET42 with 265/30/20 tires.

Thanks that's what I ordered.

Mod bargains recommended 275/30 on the rear.. thoughts?
