Arrow **Need Torque Specs** HRE 540R 3pcs Wheels

I recently purchase a set of HRE 540R wheels, has it sent of to custom paint the center piece. Got the wheels back, look nice but they switch one of the wheels center piece wrong. Back to Front, wrong offset.
- So, now I have to take it apart then switch it out to the right off set. Does any ones know what is the torque spec for HRE Wheels? is it easy to take it apart? it look simple, just 40 screw and nuts then the center piece come off, but I think you have to let all the air out before start to take it apart. but putting back together will need to be torque.


- Thanks

Contact HRE Wheels, can't get a hold of any ones. Bump!

I remember reading that it has to be assembled in a criss cross formation. I know Long Tran has the proper specs.

** Phew !

- Just got off the phone from HRE Wheels, Service guys told me to take off the tires, then un-screw the bolt from the back with a 30mm and re-torque it with 22lbs.

- Well, here goes 40 bolts and nuts.... this gonna be fun

- Does it matter if you goes all around 1 by 1? or do you have to Criss Cross the nuts?

HRE recommended use by hand, no power tools. Has to take the tire off the rims, then manually take the bolts and nuts off. What a bitch!!!!

why can I just go with VMR wheels like every ones in here, why do I have to choose HRE? dammit hre wheels!

any ones interested? thinking about selling, PM me

Yes by hand you don't want to strip the rivets!

It will take some time but worth it once installed!
