Hey Derrick,
Lookin good.Do you have a pic of these trials with no rivets? Will they ever be avail in 17 or 18s?
Also, just curios, how much extra weight do rivets typically add to Iforged wheel.
thanks
Chuck

I definitely like all the new designs, but they just prove how ahead of the time and trends HRE is. I guess the trailblazing is better left to HRE

but just to be fair too, it also depends on how hard hre is working to keep up with the lead. i think they are slowing down a bit

Currently the Trial is only availible in 3pc 19 and 20, so it will have rivets. And rivets do not much weight, maybe a lb or so.

Derrick rained on my parade. I was hoping to get my 20" Trials on my car before they were released on CL.
Oh well... I should have them this week.....I hope.

No, you and Manaray rained on MY parade by ordering the new forgings!!!! I heard you guys came in and darn near bum-rushed the place! LOL

Can't wait to see them man I'm guessing either Manaray bullied you into Brushed Aluminum, or Vince bullied you into Graphite, which one?

That's funny! I guess Manaray's cat is out of the bag too.
I went with brushed centers. Not too much of a difference from my 20" 2-pc. Aeros.

BTW: You forgot to mention 2.5" front lips with BBK clearance

Sorry..... I guess we're even now.
So, since there are cats all over, which of these have you chosen to be your new wheels?

Jeez, Please post up pictures of the Trials when you get them on your GS, they look awesome. I love the 5-spoke design of the Aero, but have felt they always looked slightly plain. I was thinking of the Classic's, but with the new forging process and this new style of whee. im going to break down D!
