About

HRE R101 Lightweight

The HRE R101 Lightweight is a one-piece forged monoblock wheel engineered to push the R101 design further than ever. Starting at just 16 lbs, each R101 LW is optimized on a per-vehicle-model basis—HRE uses load rating and power output data specific to your application to selectively remove weight and add stiffness exactly where it counts most. The result is a wheel purpose-built for your car rather than a generic fitment adapted to fit it.

Every R101 Lightweight is CNC machined from aerospace-grade 6061-T6 forged aluminum right here in the USA, delivering an exceptional strength-to-weight ratio that reduces unsprung mass and rotational inertia for sharper handling response. Standard knurling on the tire bead seat helps prevent tire slippage, and the wheel ships compatible with OE TPMS sensors and lug hardware. A centerlock configuration is also available for select applications. Choose from 77 available finishes—including Satin Charcoal, Satin Black, and Satin Bronze—across diameters from 17" to 22". Note: R101 Lightweight is offered in select fitments only; Viper owners should see the R161 Lightweight.

Every forged wheel order placed through TFS Wheels includes up to $1,000 in credit toward tires, additional wheels, or accessories. Pricing starts at $3,450 per wheel (Series R1 pricing), and each wheel is backed by HRE's Lifetime Limited Structural Warranty and a 2-Year Finish Warranty.

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 R101 Lightweight different from the standard HRE R101?
The R101 Lightweight is redesigned on a model-by-model basis using each vehicle's specific load rating and power output data. HRE engineers use that information to remove weight and reinforce stiffness in precisely the right areas, resulting in a wheel optimized for your exact car rather than a universal fitment—with a starting weight of just 16 lbs.
What vehicles is the HRE R101 Lightweight available for?
The R101 Lightweight is offered in select vehicle fitments only. Because each version is engineered around a specific model's requirements, not every application is supported. If you drive an SRT Viper, HRE directs you to the R161 Lightweight instead. Contact TFS Wheels via the request-a-quote form to confirm availability for your vehicle.
Can I get the HRE R101 Lightweight in a centerlock configuration?
Yes. A centerlock option is available for the R101 Lightweight on compatible vehicle applications. When requesting a quote, let us know your vehicle and preferred configuration and we'll confirm whether centerlock is supported for your fitment.
How many finish options does the HRE R101 Lightweight come in?
The R101 Lightweight is available in 77 finishes. HRE has shown the wheel in Satin Charcoal, Satin Black, and Satin Bronze, but the full palette covers a wide range of colors and surface treatments. Your TFS quote will include finish options suited to your application.
What warranty does HRE provide on the R101 Lightweight?
HRE backs the R101 Lightweight with a Lifetime Limited Structural Warranty covering the integrity of the forged construction, plus a 2-Year Finish Warranty covering the surface treatment against defects. Both warranties apply from the original date of purchase.
Does TFS Wheels offer any extras when I order the HRE R101 Lightweight?
Yes—every forged wheel order through TFS Wheels includes up to $1,000 in credit that you can apply toward tires, other wheels, or accessories. It's our way of making your complete wheel and tire package even more valuable. Request a quote to get started and we'll walk you through how to apply your credit.
