Default worth it if you get a good deal

coming from someone who doesnt have expensive rims, at any rate, they are baller status but i think there are lots of awesome rims out there, HRE or not.

Default High polish or charcoal finish on silver...?

looking for opinions... i think the high polish might be too much on a silver car... but then maybe the charcoal is too dark... from the pics on HRE's website it looks very dark, and i DO NOT like that... i want it to be a real light gray...

pics would be awesome if anyone has them...

Default Anthracite or Gunmetal - check out the silver cars.......

The HREs with an Anthracite or gunmetal center look really cool on silver - you can get a comparison at the Iforged site - go to the Audi section and click the pics. You might like that look. HREs are very classy and I think one of the best aftermarket rims for ours or any car.

Default Do HRE's come with all your mounting hardware as well...

I see they have alot of other items listed on the site, as chrome wheel bolts, blah, blah, blah...

for the price of these, i'm hoping they would come with the proper wheel bolts...
