HRE Wheels since it's inception has had a motorsport presence in the US. In fact, HRE was founded as a motorsports brand over 30 years ago. Many assume that HRE is a street performance wheel brand due to our overwhelming success in that genre over the past couple decades. We had not previously promoted our racing involvement and thought I would share our recent achievements in the Motorsport world.
Too keep this concise, here is a short listing of some of our most recent Motorsport activities with which most of you are probably unaware.
