Visit HRE factory?

anyone swung by HRE over in San Diego?

I'm planning a visit I was wondering if they have a showroom or anything worth seeing.

I have been there many times and toured their manufacturing facility. It's a great place to visit for someone into wheels. They do have a showroom with about 30+ wheels on display. Plus whatever happens to be in their production space. I live 15 minutes away and have had them refinish a few sets of HRE's. It's not a must-visit while in socal but it is an impressive operation to see. The best time to visit is during their annual open house. They draw an impressive amount of cars.

I think that open house is coming up soon again actually.

Yep, in June! Sadly I'll be out of the country on that date so I'll be missing it.

Update : I was able to get a quick tour of the facility and see a lot of the operations first hand. Very informative, I think this would make me more inclined to buy HREs.

Now I just need to find the money....
