HRE recently joined forces with Rhys Millen to release the first off-road wheel in its history, the RX43 bead-lock rim. This uses a strong 13-spoke profile and makes use of a new technology, using a self-centering outer ring that holds the bead of the tire in its place, as well as keeping the titanium parts and valve stems from being damaged.
The wheel, which is only sold through Rhys Millen Racing, is offered in the following sizes: 17x8.75, 17x9.25 and 17x10.25. This comes in standard with a HRE powder coat finish, but custom finishes are available.
“We’re constantly pushing the boundaries of what HRE can do for racers in any discipline, said HRE President Alan Peltier. The RX43 wheel meshes our lightweight R43 series with bead-lock technology from the off-road realm to give rallycross drivers a confidence they’re going to have a robust wheel and tire package that survives to the end of the race.”
