    Wheels Boutique - HRE's Largest Dealer Worldwide    ​


    When a repeat customer of ours walked back into WB HQ asking for something flashy yet performance driven for his 991 Turbo we knew exactly what to do. Ever since the creation of the R101 Lightweights late last year, these HRE’s have been the go-to custom forged choice for those exotic car owners needing to squeeze every last ounce of performance out of their vehicles. Why were the R101 LW’s the choice? Try 20”x9” fronts under 20 lbs each and 20”x13” rears just a tick over 20. Pair that with sticky 255 & 335 Pirelli P Zero Corsa tires and you’ve got a monster on your hands. ;)

    Wheel Specs:
    HRE R101 Lightweights
    20”x9” // 20”x13”
    Finish: Brushed Red
    Tires: Pirelli P Zero Corsa
    Front: 255/35/20
    Rear: 335/30/20

    looks great.

    would look better if the calipers weren't yellow. Thanks Porsche....

    So same design as P101 just lighter? Pretty great idea you guys. Can you please post the weight of all the various R101 sizes for the centerlocks?

    The weight depends on various factors like the wheel's diameter, width, offset, and load rating requirements for the vehicle it is going on. Is there a specific car model that you're looking to gain weight info for?

    911 GT3 RS, 12.5x21 and 9.5x20 as well as BMW i8. I believe for that I'd go 20x9 in front and 20x10.5 in rear.

    For the GT3RS we got 18.4 lbs & 23.5 lbs per wheel front & rear respectively. That look can be seen here - http://www.ferrarichat.com/forum/porsche/540067-lightweight-name-game-991-gt3rs-hre-r101-lws-team-wb.html

    The BMW i8 hasn't been done before with the R101 LW's and special engineering would have to go into that to create the fitment. As a reference point, the R101 LW's made for the M3/M4 came in at 20x9.5 @ 17.2 lbs per // 20x11 @ 18.2 lbs per

    Very light! Thank you! That's nearly as light as the magnesium wheels on the 918 and same size.
