Advise on Wheels for F10

Don Juan · 08-07-2013, 12:13 PM

Hi guys,
I'm contemplating the HRE Flowforms..look really nice, have a nice concavity and are light but a bit more pricey compared to Avant garde and concept 1... any inputs/comment good or bad of these wheels ?

Cal@MORR · 08-08-2013, 11:38 AM

The HRE Flowforms utilize rotary forged inner barrels so the end result is a lighter and stronger wheel. AVG are typically low pressure cast and the Concept One's are gravity cast.

If you can spend the extra money, go with the HRE.

Thanks for the input..yes I did some research and it is amzaing how they create this HRE FF wheels... and only weights 21lbs... If i recall correctly from one of the members of this forum, it says teh AG wheels weight over 30lbs ..ouch

I have a set of HRE Flow FF01 as well and the F10 fitment that HRE sells for
the F10 are very weak when it comes to the offset.

Their recommend specs are.

20x10 et40
20x8.5 et30

The front wheels are almost flat in regards to concavity.

My bad that's a typo on my post. It's 20x8 et30 not 35.

I'll see if I have a pic on the front wheel.

Don't get me wrong it's a great wheel just saying the front doesn't have much concavity.

AH..i thought they changed the offset..

there s only 1 picture with those HRE FF on their website on a white car..it looks decent but can't tell if it sits flush..may need spacers :-(

Oh you will need spacers for sure on the front. I'd say a 10mm for sure.

My daughter has the FFo1's on her F30 right now but here's some pics for reference.

HMMM... I've been trying to figure this one out with Jeffu for the longest time... my front wheels are super concave on my HRE's....

Correct the set you have were HRE's first specs but the changed it right after.

decoy1116 · 08-08-2013, 01:18 PM

9.5 fronts!! nice!!!

but Lacster,..perhaps the 3 series wheels even though are the same offsets sit different compared to the F10... I can't find anyone else pictures to compare..just these black ones from and the ones in the hre webpage

Cal@MORR · 08-08-2013, 01:48 PM

We typically run 20x9 ET20 front on the F10 for more flush. ET30 is going to be a bit sunk like others have said, especially on just 8.5.

Definitely go with that 20x9.5 front as shown above, so much better stance and concave.

Just confirm with your order what specs you're getting. The 9.5's aren't part of the F10 fitment anymore.

The wheels on my daughter's car are from my F10. I deciding on a new set of MORR's so I put them on her F30 and there's no difference between the 3 and 5 setup.
