Independent Auditors’ Report

To the Retirement Committee of the
    Hayes Lemmerz International, Inc.
    Retirement Savings Plan:

We have audited the accompanying statements of assets available for plan benefits of Hayes Lemmerz International, Inc. Retirement Savings Plan as of December 31, 2001 and 2000, and the related statements of changes in assets available for plan benefits for the years then ended. These financial statements are the responsibility of the Plan’s management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audits.

We conducted our audits in accordance with auditing standards generally accepted in the United States of America. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. An audit also includes assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

In our opinion, the financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the assets available for plan benefits as of December 31, 2001 and 2000, and the changes in assets available for plan benefits for the years then ended, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

Our audits were performed for the purpose of forming an opinion on the basic financial statements taken as a whole. The supplemental schedule H, line 4i — schedule of assets (held at end of year) is presented for the purpose of additional analysis and is not a required part of the basic financial statements, but is supplementary information required by the Department of Labor’s Rules and Regulations for Reporting and Disclosure under the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974. The supplemental schedule has been subjected to the auditing procedures applied in the audits of the basic financial statements and, in our opinion, is fairly stated in all material respects in relation to the basic financial statements taken as a whole.

HAYES LEMMERZ INTERNATIONAL, INC.
RETIREMENT SAVINGS PLAN

Notes to Financial Statements
December 31, 2001 and 2000

     
(1) Description of the Plan
 
  The Hayes Lemmerz International, Inc. Retirement Savings Plan (the Plan) was established effective January 1, 1993. The Plan has been amended from time to time since that date and was restated as of January 1, 2000. The Plan is a contributory defined contribution plan designed to provide eligible hourly and salaried employees of participating plants, divisions, or subsidiaries of Hayes Lemmerz International, Inc. (the Company) with a vehicle to systematically save funds for retirement. The Plan is subject to the provisions of the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974 (ERISA)
 
  Effective June 1, 2000, participants in the Aluminum Wheel Technology Retirement Plan were merged into the Plan. All assets were transferred to the Plan as of the merger date.
 
  The following is a brief description of the Plan based on the restated plan agreement dated January 1, 2000. Participants should refer to the plan agreement for more complete information.
       
 
  (a)   Salary and Hourly Nonrepresented Employees at the following locations: Akron, Berea, Bristol, Dallas RTC, Ferndale, Gainesville, Homer, Howell, Huntington (Salary only), LaMirada (Salary only), Northville, Nuevo Laredo, Somerset
 
      Eligibility
 
      Employees not covered under a Company-sponsored pension plan are eligible to participate in the Plan. Employees are eligible on the first day of the month following 30 days of full-time employment.
 
      Participant Contributions
 
      A participant may elect to make a basic deferred contribution of between 1% and 15% of the participant’s compensation, subject to certain limitations as specified by the Internal Revenue Service (IRS). The participant may elect the percentage of the participant’s contribution to be allocated to each investment fund.
 
      Employer Contributions
 
      Employer contributions consist of matching contributions, retirement contributions, unused vacation contributions, and retiree medical contributions. The matching contribution is $1.00 for each dollar of the participant’s deferred contribution made, limited to an amount equal to 2% of the participant’s compensation. The retirement contribution equals 5% of compensation until the participant’s year-to-date compensation reaches the Social Security taxable wage base. After reaching the taxable wage base, the contribution equals 8% of compensation. For participants who do not use an eligible fifth week of vacation, one week’s pay is contributed to the Plan. The retiree medical contribution represents an additional employer matching contribution of up to 2% of the participant’s compensation. The participants may elect the percentage of the employer contribution to be allocated to each investment fund.

December 31, 2001 and 2000

     
    Loans
 
    Participants may borrow up to the lesser of $50,000 or 50% of the vested portion of their account at a market rate. When a loan is made, the participant’s investment fund(s) assets are decreased on a pro rata basis and the loan receivable is reflected in the Loan Fund. Loan repayments are redeposited into the participant’s accounts based on current election directives. Participants may have up to two loans outstanding at any one time.
 
    Forfeitures
 
    Nonvested employer contributions of terminated employees become forfeitures after a one-year break in service — unless the nonvested balance is greater than $3,500, in which case they would become a forfeiture after a five-year break in service — and are used to reduce future employer contributions.
 
    Participants’ Accounts
 
    Each participant’s account is credited with the participant’s contribution, the employer’s contribution, and an allocation of plan earnings. Allocations are computed at the end of each calendar quarter, based on the participant’s account balance.
 
    Administrative Expenses
 
    The Company pays certain administrative expenses associated with the Plan.
       
(2) Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
 
  (a)   Basis of Presentation
 
      The accompanying financial statements are presented on the accrual basis of accounting such that all income, benefits, and expenses are recognized in the period to which they relate.
 
  (b)   Valuation of Investments
 
      Investments in all common trust funds and mutual funds are stated at their aggregate fair value, based upon quoted market prices of the underlying investments within the funds. Investments in Hayes Lemmerz International, Inc. common stock are valued based on the quoted market price. Unrealized and realized gains or losses are reflected currently in the statement of changes in assets available for plan benefits. Purchases and sales of fund units or securities are recorded on a trade-date basis.
 
  (c)   Use of Estimates
 
      The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires the plan administrator to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

    (d) New Accounting Pronouncements
 
      In June 1998, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued SFAS No. 133, Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities (SFAS No. 133), which was amended in June 2000 by SFAS No. 138. SFAS No. 133, as amended, requires that an entity recognize all derivatives and measure those instruments at fair value.
 
      The Plan adopted SFAS No. 133, as amended, effective January 1, 2001. Management has determined that the impact of SFAS No. 133 on the Plan financial statements is immaterial.
     
(3) Investment Funds
 
  Participants direct their accounts to be invested in various investment funds. American Century Securities, Inc. (American Century), as trustee, maintains the funds under the Plan.
 
(4) Tax Status
 
  The IRS, in a letter dated July 22, 1996, determined that the Plan meets the requirements of section 401(a) of the Internal Revenue Code (IRC) and is exempt from Federal income tax under section 501(a) of the Code. The Plan has been amended since that date. Although the plan has not received an updated determination letter, the plan administrator believes that the Plan is designed and currently being operated in compliance with the applicable requirements of the IRC.
 
(5) Termination of the Plan
 
  The Company has reserved the right to terminate or amend the Plan at any time. In the event of complete or partial termination of the Plan, participants become 100% vested in their accounts and the balance in the participant’s account will be distributed at the discretion of the committee which administers the Plan.
 
(6) Related Party Transactions
 
  American Century serves as the Plan’s record keeper and trustee. The Plan has invested $139,459,637 and $148,999,432 of assets in American Century-sponsored funds at December 31, 2001 and 2000, respectively. The Plan holds investments in the Company’s common stock. At December 31, 2001 and 2000, the Plan had invested $914,371 and $6,560,515, respectively, in the Company’s common stock.
 
(7) Subsequent Event
 
  On December 5, 2001, the Company filed a voluntary petition for reorganization under Chapter 11 of the Bankruptcy Code.
