    Wheel recommendation

    Guest-only advertisement. Register or Log In now!
    I'm planning to put some winter tires on my 20" OEM wheels and get a new set for my OEM summer tires (in the future to be replaced by 265/35R20 Michelin PSS). The Hartmann wheel looks just like my OEM wheel but is 1/2" wider. The Neuspeed wheel is the same size as the Harmann (i.e. 20x9" ET40). Does anyone out there have experience with any of them and could provide some advise which way to go? I have read good comments about the quality of Hartmann wheels but did not find much information on the Neuspeed. I would throw one more competitor out there but it is ~$1k more expensive and I didn't see a gunmetal colored option. The VS Forged VS01. The latter is about the same weight as the Neuspeed while I couldn't find the weight of the Hartmann. Any comments or recommendations?

    After some more research I want to add the Forgestar CF10 in the mix. They recommended a 20x9.0 ET 35 but I'm wondering if ET40 would clear my front calipers. I don't really like my wheels too close to the fenders. Does anyone have these and would like to comment?

    These are the Neuspeed wheels. I have had them for about 6 months. They are very light weight and have a great finish on them. They fit the S6 and clear the front rotors but I have 12.5 mil spacers on both the front and rear. These are the gunmetal. For the money they are a very nice lightweight wheel.

    Thanks for posting these pictures. I have been looking all over the internet for what these will look like on the S6.
    Have they been reliable so far? Looking to get the hyper black on a daytona grey c7.5

    The Hartmann HRS6-091-MA:M in 20x9.0" ET40 weighs 29.6 Lbs, hope this helps! These are in stock and ready for immediate shipment.

    Eyeing these Hartmann wheels myself for summer wheels. Wish those Audi center caps were cheaper as a package deal than what they’re ringing out as.

    We have to buy them in the thousands to get the price down even that much unfortunately. These days they are about the cheapest OEM option, the caps they are using on a lot of the new generation cars lists at around $80 per cap! There are rep caps on eBay but they don't seem to hold up very well, the paint typically looks pretty bad after a year or so.
