This is what you end up within 2 years after spending over $5,000 for HRE wheels.

In this case they were black anodized and the color just bleed out with no easy or cheap way to fix them and zero support from HRE

Looks like they're painted with a Magic Marker!

Hi JIm,
Looks even worse in person smile
Detracts from the whole car, looks like they have one hell of a profit margin and most likely not even made in the USA with quality that bad.

Thanks for the tip. One more accessory eliminated from my list.

Very very unhappy as it takes a loan for most to buy rims and this car never sees rain or snow yet just from heat the color bleed out and just think of the cost to fix them.
I suspect these rims are made where people get paid $8 a day or the vendor simply cares less about quality.
