+1...completely agree. These will replace my OEM Contis.

Yes - Gorilla sells 2 types of locks: the regular gets you 4 locks, with 1 per wheel; the “System” gets you 20 locks, 5 per wheel.

I know they look good on a Mythos Black RS5 in 20x10.5, so I don’t see why they wouldn’t on a Daytona Grey S5.....go for it!!! Nice choice!

HRE...found it. $2400/wheel??? Anyone know why some of these wheels cost 5x a normal wheel? While they look sick, it’s quite a price jump!

HRE is top notch. Fully forged wheels are big bucks. Cast and flow forged are much more affordable. Also, the size makes a big difference. Check out BC Forged. They are also fully forged and offer monblock style as well as multi piece.

Or, check out the HRE FlowFormed FF04 wheel. It’s very similar looking at a very affordable cost. They are flow forged, so they are lighter then cast. The barrels are forged and the face is cast. It’s like a hybrid.

Anyone know of a Borbet distributor / dealer in the USA? All I seem to be able to find are European web sites.
