The HRE 501 belongs to the Vintage Series, a collection designed to channel the bold, iconic wheel aesthetics of 1970s and '80s exotic sports and race cars. Whether your build is a European GT, a performance sedan, or a capable SUV, the 501's classic spoke architecture delivers period-correct character with thoroughly modern engineering. Sizes run from 18" to 24", and SUV load ratings are available on 20" through 24" fitments.
Every HRE 501 is CNC machined to your exact vehicle specifications from aerospace-grade 6061-T6 forged aluminum, delivering an exceptional strength-to-weight ratio. Standard backpad pocketing reduces unsprung mass and rotational inertia, while ARP high-strength stainless-steel fasteners (with optional titanium hardware) hold everything together. The wheel ships OE TPMS and lug hardware compatible, and each order is backed by HRE's Lifetime Limited Structural Warranty and a 2-Year Finish Warranty. As a bonus, every forged order placed through TFS includes up to $1,000 in credit toward tires, additional wheels, or accessories.
Personalization options are extensive: choose from 13 standard solid finishes or expand your palette with 61 optional transparent colors applied over brushed, polished, stone, or frozen metal surfaces. Fully custom colors are available on request. Lip profiles come in Rolled or Flange configurations, and construction can be upgraded to a 2-Piece FMR-X® (from $3,375 each) or a 3-Piece build (from $3,475 each). All HRE forged wheels are Made in USA from domestic and foreign materials.
