Shot in the dark here: Anyone have a 17" HRE lip for sale? or 17" HRE 545 wheel?
<center><img src="http://i177.photobucket.com/albums/w236/leftychang/hrebent.jpg"></center><p>I have a set of 18" hre's for my s4, but i got this 17" set of wheels from a totalled m3. if i could somehow find a lip for this car i would have a complete set again.
i only need the lip, but the entire wheel is also good. i know i can get the lip for $500 from HRE, or the entire wheel for $1200, but thats $$, just taking a stab to see if anyone has a HRE lip or wheel to get rid of ... or center caps

soaked in pb blaster, cut silicone seal, removed nuts and allen bolts from behind, pulled bolts out
from the front, done. pretty easy and straight forward. if i ever find a lip ill just be sure to tighten in star pattern, torque to spec, redo silicone lip

haha- my roommate disassembled/reassembled his iForged wheels 3 times last year
I felt bad for him when he got everything back together, only to realize he put the centers for his rear wheels on the rims for the fronts. d'oh! (m3 fitment)
