HRE Performance Wheels 528

Five arms, each fanning into three spokes

Look at the hub and you see a five-point star; look at the rim and you see a ring of slim spokes. The connection is that each of the five arms fans out into three spokes, which is why the face manages to be both structured and busy. Narrow slots separate the groups, and a machined outer band closes the pattern off.

This is a face that changes completely with viewing distance. Close up it is a set of triplets; from twenty feet it is a fine multi-spoke. That behavior is hard to judge from a wheel catalog and easy to judge from a render of a whole car, which is really the argument for looking at it here first.

Series 5, forged 3-piece, offered in 18", 19", 20", 21", 22", 23", 24". Sports sedans and fastbacks, and light wraps where the slots between each group of three stay open rather than filling with shadow. We've rendered it on 231 cars so far — same studio frame each time, wheel swapped in place.
