Gauging interest for HP Racing's new wheel the HPR 5
 

Hey all, this is just to see if anyone is interested.

When I was at SEMA, I met up with the guys from HP Racing, they had a new wheel on display. All I can say is DAMN. I did not get a shot of it but will be calling to see if my rep can email me a pic for all to see (if not I will scan the brochure pic). It is one piece and the sizes are 18x8, 18x9, 19x8.5, and 19x9.5 and the offset is 38...the lip on these rims was truly beautiful and the finishes it comes in are hypersilver or chrome...the only rim that comes to mind is the ROH Modena...here is what that rim looks like:

Once again this is a check to see if anyone is interested in something like this.

Thanks,
Harry

How much for 18x9 and 19x8.5? Do they look more like the Modena or the RH C5?

More like the Modena. Not even close to the C5. The 5 spindles look more beefier and show more definition, almost more muscular??? if that makes sense...than the C5, which is a straight forward flat design.

Hey big h, we gotta see some pics. Please start a new thread when you got some :)

Roger that!

i would love to know the price for those modena. i love those. thats the only wheel i can find that is a skinny 5 spoke with a nice lip to it. what are the other specs of the wheel if you know off hand. thank you


**nevermind about the specs. it helps if you read the whole post. i was just too excited about the wheel :banghead: .

Just called them and the wheels will be ready to ship out in January.

price? for 19x8.5?

Update

The wheels will not be ready until end of January / beginning of February. I have 10 sets for the Maxima owners if they are interested and another 10 sets for the G35 sedan and Coupe guys.

pics?

10 chars

you should setup like a package..like 2 18 x 8's for the fronts and 2 18 x 9's for the backs.. with sumitomo HTR + tires :) for the ne guys
let us know how this deals going..wheels look good :)

cost? .............

the modenas are definitely HOT... get some pics to us of the actual HPR5 rims and give us some price estimates....
quick question... RE: raf2k's post above:
can we even do staggered rim sizes for our car? will they fit wider in the back than the front? i thought we couldn't... but if we can.. that would be pretty interesting to see...

i am pretty interested in these wheels if the price is right

Sorry for the delay getting the pricing up buy I have been calling other competitors to see what they are offering the New Lightning for to make sure that the price is right. The HPR5's will be a bit more due to it being a new release, but not by much more ($75-100)

I am trying to include shipping, the whole shabang. Canadians will need to get in touch with me due to this product will be coming from the States, and I have to incorporate all fees and customs stuff into the pricing.

Thanks for your patience.

bump? bump...

Ok I will definately update this as I have the pricing on the New Lightning but still am waiting word and my picture of the wheel. So far, I have 3 sets of the 18x8's in Silver (no other color avail-Hp's out of stock) and 5 sets of the 19x8.5 Lightning available in silver or hyper silver dark (that is the one in the pic) Those wishing for staggered fitment 18x9 in the rear, I'm not sure that they will fit back there. I have 20x8.5, and no rubbing issues at all. So 8.5" is a safe bet. :)

Now I also have ordered the HPR5, but am still waiting for word on when they will be at HP. Same order 3 and 5. Since they have my money, I have no idea as to what finish will be available first. :goofy:

Here is a teaser: What do you think of a rim and spring deal? Any set of HP's with Maxspeed springs? Is that something some of you would be interested in? I'm seriously looking at it.. :thumbsup:

I can start a gb on the Lightning right away if you want. Let me know.

if the lightning is the same one im thinking then i def want a price??

These are not light weight wheels are they?

They aren't forged if that's what you mean :) I can weigh the ones at the shop to see the exact weight.

that would be nice and a price too??? :thumbsup: :thumbsup:

maybe youre 'new' lightning is the evo.. im just kinda confused??

Hey guys, pricing and weight will be up Monday.

No one answered on the idea of including an option for Maxspeed springs in this deal? Would that be a good idea? Let me know.

As for EVo and New Lightning...the wheel with the bigass lip is the correct wheel

Offset is 38.

How much? and can u do with tires?

:sprint:

-J

I am sure they can do tires, but I'll have ask on monday. Most manufacturers have a select few brands, for example ADR uses Federal and Ventus.

Those kind of look like my evos except mine has big lip! :p

I scanned the brochure.

Check it out...oh and you can also see the new HPR10 with the HP Racing logo stamped into the outter lip

-Harry

i am really wanting those in the 18"x8 or 8.5 with 235 or 245 40. PM me with a price

So i am assuming the HPR5 are the ones on the bottom right. I would love to know the cost of those rims.

is this the silver w/ polished lip or chrome?
also whats the price on these in 18's or 19's???

thanks

Those look pretty dang sweet to me. too bad im never going to have any money for rims..

Ok the pricing for these will be more, but not by much. I am on the phone daily with my rep over at HP and he is stating that the wheels are brand new release and their price point will be a bit higer due to that. I will be looking at pricing near the mid week of February.

How come there's been a whole sh!tload of request for prices, but no answer?

Correct the HPR5's are the lower right wheel,

As soon as I find out the prices I'll post it...i'm definately not going to guess a price. But I need confirmation on price from HP. That is all I am waithing for!

Just bumping back to the top to see if there is any word on the status and price of the HPR5s.
