    As a machinist and auto enthusiast myself, this video speaks volumes about HRE Wheels production process, and why the wheels cost what they cost. Aside from the CNC machining, which is basically a precision and time sensitive investment, these wheels are almost fully handmade and bespoke. Again, you get what you pay for! Not a boring video at all. Too bad it wasn't longer! LOL. Keep up the good work HRE...

      @CIA Defector... Oh, I did. I just didn’t mention it in my comment. He should’ve said turn. He got a pass as he’s obviously not a machinist, but was very knowledgeable with the production process of the wheels.

      Well, you might be a machinist, but your not a business owner if you think that. I just see profit, profit, profit everywhere in this video. These guys must be making huge amounts of money. Sad thing is that people think that working for companies is a good thing. Its like being a slave, making other people rich.

      @@revolveperformance what a stupid statement, after almost every USA wheel producer has to use China now to even stay in the black. You don’t think that most wheel producers would not prefer to use local employees instead of outsourcing? The problem is not about too much profit, competition always deals with that, the problem is what China is doing with almost every industry in the USA. Soon there will be zero jobs available, people will be dreaming of what you are calling “slave” work.

    Just beautiful. This is what Mr Trump is talking about when he says "Make America great again". HRE is doing just that, they are the front line, making America great again, one wheel at a time.

They are works of art...functional art. Love the video.

      The FlowForm wheels are not built in house at HRE.

FlowForm wheels are more lightweight than traditional cast construction wheels & factory wheels.

HRE wants to stay focused on doing what they know & what they do best & that's custom forged wheels. Allowing another company that specialized in FlowForm technology made the most sense for them. I don't believe they have ever mentioned who they partnered with - that would be a question for them.
