I currently have the 19" HRE 540s(3 piece). Im happy with the fit, ride, and the look. Not to hijack this thread but IMO, id stay away from multi piece wheels. I think monoblocks(1 piece) wheel designs are far more durable for everyday driving. Ive bent those wheels a couple times now and im just tired of the headaches. The wheel repair guy is actually contemplating on welding the internal seams to prevent future leaks. I live in SoCal and im very carefull when i drive, but you cant just get lucky everytime.
I dont track the car thats why weight is not a factor for me, i dont mind heavier monoblocks.
I have 19" BBS Starform monoblocks on my 92 911 Turbo, never have i bent those wheels.
Just my 2 cents.
