yeah HRE said " no serial number, no real" haha who knows. im glad it cost me just return shipping and he was a guy that didnt give me a hard time over it.

@zoo you got the tool for oz operas?

A lot of their early wheels had the serial "scribed" into the mounting face. Easy to sand it off.

OZ tool -I have one coming, actually. Ordered from XXL-Automotive (Germany).

There is a coupon code somewhere for 10% off. Plus no VAT. Shipping is very expensive though.
Another one is available here http://www.ebay.com/itm/221610336776
But in the picture it looks like a Laser 8mm socket, which does not work on Operas.

I have OZ tools if you can't find any=)

You have the male 10pt bit for Operas? How much?

Wow, thats sad and funny at the same time. Those are HRE, model 535.
He had them listed as "early 540". I was tempted to buy them, seems like I dodged a bullet there.

yeah idk. he sold another set of wheels on here and didn't seem like there were any issues. HRE looked at pictures and they said they looked like reps

I wish people knew how to properly measure wheels...

[bradp@adaptecspeedware]

Those wheels look great!
What went wrong with the HRE's?

dude posted them as 18x10/12. when they came they ended up being 9/11. then after i ordered tires and stripped them for refinishing they ended up being 17's. i didnt think i had to check that

[bradp@adaptecspeedware]

oh damn, those wheels and flares... Perfect!
Will it stay camo?

thanks. nope, going with a full spray.
