About

HRE 521

The HRE 521 is a 5-spoke mesh design from the 520 Series — a versatile family of wheels that draws on HRE's Vintage and Classic lineage while refining the look for everything from 1980s icons and modern supercars to performance crossovers. A distinctive bowl feature surrounds the lug area, and the face is available in High, Medium, and Low profiles so you can dial in exactly the stance you want.

Each 521 is CNC machined to your vehicle's exact specifications from aerospace-grade 6061-T6 forged aluminum, delivering an exceptional strength-to-weight ratio without excess mass. Standard backpad pocketing further reduces unsprung weight and rotational inertia, while your choice of Rolled Lip or Flange Lip barrel profiles adds another layer of personalization. ARP high-strength stainless-steel fasteners are used throughout, and every wheel is OE TPMS and lug hardware compatible. SUV load ratings are available in 20"–24" diameters.

Every HRE 521 order placed through TFS Wheels includes up to $1,000 in credit toward tires, additional wheels, or accessories. HRE backs each wheel with a Lifetime Limited Structural Warranty and a 2-Year Finish Warranty, and all wheels are made in the USA from domestic and foreign materials. With 76 finish options and 18"–24" diameter availability, the 521 is ready to be built to your exact spec — request a quote to get started.

The HRE 521 starts at $2,525 per wheel at the 520 Series level.

Request a quote through TFS Wheels for an exact price for your application.
What sizes are available for the HRE 521?
The HRE 521 is available in diameters from 18" through 24". Width, offset, and bolt pattern are all CNC machined to your specific vehicle fitment requirements, so the wheel is built precisely for your application rather than pulled from generic shelf stock.

There are 76 finish options available for the HRE 521. These range across gloss, satin, and frozen treatments in a wide variety of colors, and can be combined with Polished Clear or Frozen Polished Clear FMR® barrel finishes for a two-tone look.
What warranty does HRE provide on the 521?
HRE covers every 521 wheel with a Lifetime Limited Structural Warranty against manufacturing defects in the wheel's structure, plus a 2-Year Finish Warranty on the applied finish. These warranties are backed directly by HRE.
