How about 2 piece Forge lines with tires! Military to Military discount $4200! They are 18" in the fronts and 19" in the rear. :2tu:

And if you road race, they are certified through the middle of next year :2tu:

I prefer and have the HRE 547's. I would have strongly considered the Purner's but they only came in 19's and I wanted to stay with 18's.

HRE 547 R's. I just got them from Parts Rack. Look ureal, center caps are way superior to Purner's. 18 was the choice for me on my Gen. 1.

505's all the way. They will probably save you at least a G. I got them, they look schweet on my 97 B/W GTS. I will post pics tomorrow when I get everything put back together after my repainting.

You'll save a G, but they will look nowhere near as good as the HRE R series. I sold my Purners and bought the HRE's -- WAY nicer looking, and more agressive with the bolt look. The Purners on the SRT10 looked *** IMHO, so I went with some HRE545R's instead, and they look bad ass on the car (had them on the GTS for a while.)

The easiest thing to do mustangjay660 if you are considering either rims are to find a pic of the same rims on the car that you have.

I think the difference is more like 2Gs...
$2600 for the Puners, vs. 4700 for HREs full polished.
But you get what you pay for with HREs..

I went with the 505A's and I am very pleased with them.

Re: Purner 505\'s or HRE 547\'s whats your opinion?

This is a personal opinion, akin to feelings about whether an RT-10,GTS, or SRt-10 is the best looking Viper. The main item I would impart is the fantastic support we have seen from Forgeline and CCW ( Purner's ) , over the many years. All are good looking wheels, but the two above companies are vastly superior to many others when it comes to taking care of their customers -IMHO!

I like the HRE 547's the best, but if the Purners came in 18s I would probably go with them over the HREs. Both are great looking wheels.
