Update 3.3.20 - I connected with HRE again today and they are always very helpful and patient on the phone - kudos to them for great customer service! Anyhoo this is the second time I've been told by HRE that they do not offer their FF wheels in a 5x112 bolt pattern just yet - so I'm not sure what to say....I guess I wait. It's odd because based on other posts here in the forum it would seem the 5x112 is available but I'm not going to argue with the manufacturer about their own product. So I guess disregard my comments about HRE wheels below specifically for now (remember my first call to them I was told they were available it was my two subsequent calls to them I was told they are not).

Looking forward to updated information from anyone here or HRE when it is available. For now hopefully my sizing logic below helps a bit




Sooooo in that I am in the market as well I figured I'd dig in a bit and share what I found out, this should help.....the FF01's only come in:

-20 x 9: et35
-20 x 9: et25
-20 x 10.5: et35

HRE claims that the 20 x 10.5 et is too aggressive for the rear which means with the 20" only a square setup would work (9" wide Front and Rear).

That said the 19" options are pretty good at

-19 x 8.5: et25
-19 x 9.5: et42

Now we can compare that to a stock 19" 792M wheel with spacers (Like some here are running to get things flush)

-19 x 8: et27 with 15 spacer = et: 12
-19 x8.5: et40 with 13 spacer = et: 27


So punching the aforementioned into a wheel offset calculator, when comparing a oem 792 "flush" setup achieved with spacers vs the HRE 19" offering we get the following:

-Front inner clearance would be: 19mm less
-Front outer position would retract by: 7mm
-Rear inner clearance would be: 28mm less
-Rear outer position would retract by: 2mm


If I were to run this setup (which I may) I would run a 5mm spacer in the front on HRE FF01's which would give me a fitment very close to flush front and rear.

For reference here are the 792M wheels with spacers that I used as a starting point. Remember the HRE's (with a 5mm spacer in front) would be 2mm Front & Rear more tucked (however the overall wheel width would be wider which is always nice) vs these pictures - which would be perfect for me.
