I tested the 19/8.5 rims w/o the spacers & they fit perfect & the cap fits on no problem as well.

I took pics but cant find wire that connects from my camera to computer....as soon as I find it, I'll upload pics & show you guys.

Hey Big H, do you think at this stage it's possible for me to switch back to staggered set-up.

No problem doublea!

K Pazzo...you are the first on the list!

So it looks like the19's do not require the spacers! That's good! Thanks K pazzo for the update.

I will still offer the spacers for the 18's because they still require it!

You can if you want, but you don't need it! It will be a waste! Why do you want spacers if everything fits ok?

Ligtnings or EVOs?

Hey are these rims really Lightnings or are they the EVO's?

According to this site, they are EVOs.
http://www.wheelguyz.com/shop/browse.asp?cat=6&path=3,6

Just a thought.

Also with the 18s, are the wheel spacers included in the price of $590, so we won't rub?

Thnx

These are Lightnings, which were once called Evo's. Long story short, another company has the name Evo, so HP had to change the name.

The spacers are not for rubbing issues, they are to ensure the center caps will go on without a hitch. If you do not have these spacers, the center cap will not fit because of the space the axle bolt takes up.

can you get these on 17's? whats the difference between the EVO's and the lightning? Are they the same wheel? I got a quote for 17" EVO's from wheelguyz. just wanted to know if you can beat it.If they are two different wheels, can you give me some info on both wheels so I can decide which wheel to get.

width?
offsets available?
weight?
depth of lip?
available colors?
And most importantly, PRICE? Thanks.

will you be able to get the specs on the 17s? that is what i am interested in since 18s are kinda out of my range. if you can get a hold of a set and beat wheelguyz, that would be awsome.

My rep is not in the office today...

Those wanting 18's they are SOLD OUT! So those of you who did not place a deposit will not be getting the wheels off this container.

19x8.5's are still available, but selling very quickly.

Those with deposits, your info was emailed to HP and I have yet to talk with my sales rep regarding those orders.

I tried my best to read through the first few pages of this thread but with the server being kinda slow tonight I gave up. Big H could you give me an idea of what the current status of this GD is? I would like info on the 18x8 and 18x9 as well as the 19x8.5. How many do you have in stock? Are the prices the same...when can I get ahold of a set? Oh and is the lip on the 18x9 bigger than the lip on the 18x8?? Thanks!

The only thing available is the 19x8.5's

18x8's are sold out!

One company bought 90% of the container that came in...damn.

Thanks for the pics K Pazzo. Check your email.

Hey guys, I'll definately do this deal again. I just need to ship out the outstanding stuff.

Their next container is 3-4 weeks away, and I talked with the owner who bought 90% of the container (I have a back up wholesale account set up with him) and he is already planning to purchase most of whats on that container...this is BS. He knows about the HPR5 too.

Anyways, I have alot to get done so that the customers who have paid will get their product ASAP.

-Harry

Like I said I am sure more 19x8.5 can be purchased but thats it.
