HRE's are very very expensive...for that wheel HRE 590R your looking at about $1,900 per wheel, thats without tires. Based on your previous threads you were looking for an set of wheels with tires for $1,600. These will cost you over 8G's with tires.

I like those wheels, I think they would look nice on a 4G.

Yeah, i was just wondering because there was no prices listed on the site...might as well just stick with some other company, lol.

Btw, out of curiosity the pics u posted of ur TL with the smoked taillights is there a reason why you left some not smoked and not smoke the whole light?

I worked directly with Bluebat for my tints, he is a vendor here on azine. He is local to me, so we got together to figure out what I wanted. He offered partial tints for the 3G TL and other cars as well, and I liked the style of just tinting the red portion. He also sells the full tints, but I wanted to be a little different.

his website is bluebatmobile.net

Hardly a website, more of like a photobucket. He's gotta get serious and get a real domain to get my respect. A nice guy though, but the business is still a hobby.

Yeah I agree his website isnt the best, but his tints are on point, and I would rather see a shitty domain and a great product vs. an awesome website and a shitty product... I personally respect quality over presentation.

Plus, dude is driving a viper and he is a school teacher. I wish I had a hobby that was so successful.

LOL Yeah when the wheel site has actual pictures of their wheels on Ferrari's Rolls Royce's and Lambo's, They are most likely going to be a lil pricey.

I cant tell if you are serious or not in any of your posts.
Anyways, you can get those rims and you can post your pics
on the "WTF car of the day" thread.

If you're going to dump a lot of money into rims...I say stick with nice OEM style ones. There are these 19" factory option rim at the local dealership on a 4G that looks amazing!

I say hell no to that. Why have OEM for those prices? I choose the path less traveled. I don't think they look amazing at all. Go for broke, not OEM average.

In a time when everyone is going for aftermarket wheels...and I mean EVERYONE...I think it looks classy to have the perfect drop with a nice set of OEM wheels. That's just my opinion...there are obviously very nice rims out there, but I'm pretty picky about which ones are actually nice on which car.
