About

HRE 517K

The HRE 517K belongs to the Vintage Series — a collection designed to channel the iconic wheel aesthetics of 1970s and '80s exotic sports and race cars. This race-inspired 5-spoke design features a deep spoke cross section and purposeful simplicity that suits not only classic and modern Porsches but also performance sedans, exotic GTs, SUVs, and off-roaders. Available in 17" and 18" diameters across 77 distinct finish combinations, every 517K is CNC machined to your exact vehicle specifications.

Each wheel is constructed from aerospace-grade 6061-T6 forged aluminum and assembled as a 3-piece unit using ARP high-strength stainless-steel fasteners (titanium hardware available optionally). Standard backpad pocketing reduces unsprung mass and rotational inertia for genuine performance benefits, while OE TPMS and lug hardware compatibility keeps the fitment straightforward. An optional billet aluminum hex nut cap is available in most HRE powder coat colors, and an OEM Porsche cap bore option is offered for the purist — specify your cap preference at the time of order. Every HRE 517K is Made in the USA and backed by a Lifetime Limited Structural Warranty plus a 2-Year Finish Warranty.

Pricing for the HRE 517K starts at $3,350 per wheel, and every forged wheel order placed through TFS Wheels includes up to $1,000 in credit toward tires, additional wheels, or accessories. Submit a quote request to configure your 517K in the finish, diameter, and fitment that's right for your build.

HRE × TFS Wheels

HRE Performance Wheels was founded in 1978 in California. The company specializes in high-end forged wheels designed for performance vehicles, luxury cars, and motorsport applications.

HRE is recognized for its flow-formed and forged aluminum construction, which prioritizes low unsprung weight without sacrificing structural integrity. Each wheel is manufactured in-house at their Vista, California facility, allowing tight control over quality and fitment.

The brand offers both standard catalog fitments and a fully custom program, enabling buyers to specify dimensions, finishes, and center bore configurations. HRE wheels are commonly associated with European sports cars, American muscle, and track-focused builds.

Questions

Frequently Asked Questions

What makes the HRE 517K a good choice for a Porsche build?
The 517K was designed with Porsche in mind. Its race-inspired 5-spoke profile and deep spoke cross section echo the wheel aesthetics of the golden era of Porsche motorsport. HRE also offers an OEM Porsche cap bore option for owners who want to retain the factory cap look, and the wheel is CNC machined to your specific fitment so it works correctly with your car's offsets, bolt pattern, and brake package.
How many finish options are available for the HRE 517K?
The 517K is offered in 77 distinct finishes. HRE frequently showcases multi-tone combinations — for example, a Satin Bronze center paired with a Frozen Polished Clear outer and inner, or a full Gloss Black build with a matching Gloss Black hex nut cap. Because every wheel is made to order, you can discuss your exact finish preference when submitting a quote.
What is the starting price for the HRE 517K, and what does TFS include with a forged order?
The HRE 517K starts at $3,350 per wheel, reflecting the Vintage Series pricing. Every forged wheel order placed through TFS Wheels also includes up to $1,000 in credit that can be applied toward tires, other wheels, or accessories — adding meaningful value to your purchase.
What cap styles are available for the 517K, and how do I specify one?
Three cap options exist: the standard HRE cap, an optional billet aluminum hex nut cap available in most HRE powder coat colors (excluding brushed finishes), and an OEM Porsche cap bore option for those who want to use a factory Porsche cap (the aluminum cap itself is not included with this option). Simply note your preferred cap style when you submit your quote request.
What warranty covers the HRE 517K?
HRE backs the 517K with a Lifetime Limited Structural Warranty on the wheel structure and a 2-Year Finish Warranty covering the surface finish. These warranties reflect HRE's confidence in the quality of their domestic manufacturing and the aerospace-grade 6061-T6 aluminum used throughout.
Will the HRE 517K work with my vehicle's factory TPMS sensors and lug hardware?
Yes. The HRE 517K is designed to be compatible with OE TPMS sensors and factory lug hardware, so you won't need to source specialty hardware to make the wheels work with your vehicle's existing tire pressure monitoring system.
