Wheels Boutique HRE Carbon Series
Wheels Boutique is proud to introduce the new HRE Carbon Series as many of you know HRE has team up with Dymag to produce the Carbon Series...
. Weight – We do not have a lot of weights yet, but a CF43 for a GT3RS a 19x9.0 weighs 17.2lbs and a 19x12.0 weighs 19.6lbs. We have been told this is almost exactly what a Dymag wheel weighs for the same application. The biggest wheel we’ve weighed, a CF43 in 20x12.0 for a ZR1 weighs 20.6lb. More weights to follow.
2. Passed fatigue tests to TUV specifications at a load rating sufficient for M5 and Panamera Turbo.
3. Contrary to popular myth, the carbon rims do not weigh 2 lbs. Dymag is conservative in their construction to ensure strength first and foremost and the rims typically account for 50%+ of the entire wheel weight.
4. There is a rumor that Dymag is not making centers anymore. This is not true. They will continue to sell their own branded line of wheels but HRE has an exclusive partnership with Dymag to use their rims.
5. Fitments will vary. Currently HRE is offering 19 and 20 in various widths. 18 and 22 will likely follow.
6. Finishes are std HRE powdercoats and custom paints as well as brush/cl or pol/cl. No chrome. No full polish.
7. HRE is well aware of leaking issues and worked with Dymag on the carbon barrels to ensure that leakage at the bead was solved and designed the centers to minimize any chance of leakage through the fasteners in addition to the changes made by Dymag to resolve this issue. It shouldn’t be a concern for an HRE or a current Dymag..

I'm pretty sure all Dymag wheels are suitable for the track, they're used on the Callaway corvette and Koenigsegg CCX to name a few. Not to mention high popularity among porsche enthusiasts who typical track their cars often.

Dymag wheels yes, Dymag CF wheels not. That is what I heard, I have no personal experience with them. I was hoping someone who used them would chime in.
